Dating back to the Viking era, this metal-weaving project is a great introduction to jewelry making.
Using copper and silver wire, learn the steps for metal knitting—a simple looping technique—over a round, wooden dowel. Once the knitting is made, a drawplate is used to pull the knitting through, which compresses and lengthens the wire into a beautiful hollow chain. Then, by attaching end caps and a clasp, you'll transform the chain into a lovely bracelet.

All bracelet materials are provided, including complete instruction from start to finish, through discussion and demonstration of all the steps in the process.

Materials will be sent to you by mail upon registration.
Cost: $105
