I haven't picked up my crochet hook yet this year, but was delighted to receive a pearl knotter tool at Christmas. Should think it will be fun having a go at this.
Saw this brilliant video which I am sure will help me enormously!

Pearls are going to be a strong jewellery trend for 2014. They are classy and always in style.
These lovely silver earrings are created with pearls and swarovksi crystals
There is a Pearl Exhibition at the V & A Museum in London upto 19 January 2014 http://www.vam.ac.uk/content/exhibitions/exhibition-pearls/about-the-exhibition/
Cultured and freshwater pearls dominate the jewellery market, but imitation pearls are very much in demand.

This necklace was made by crocheting silver wire into chains and adding glass pearls to the chain stitches
