Abstract: The invention includes an adjustable jewelry article and method for making the same. The article includes a filament having a first end and a second end, a first retainer mounted on the filament for capturing a first portion of the filament proximate the first end of the filament and adjustably capturing a second portion of the filament displaced from the ends of the filament, and a second retainer for capturing a third portion of the filament proximate the second end of the filament and a fourth portion of the filament displaced from the ends of the filament such that the filament forms a first loop that can be adjusted in size by capturing varying amounts of filament between the first and second retainers.
