When it rains it pours. I was a beading machine last night. I even starting a knit piece. I've made a few attempts at knitting wire. It's really awkward and the results have been less than pleasing. Switching gears, I thought I'd trying crocheting wire instead. I bought this amazing book to use as inspiration for the Bead Soup Blog Party
Easy Beading Vol. 8.
I pretty much followed the instructions for One Stitch Lots of Style. Since this is a new technique for me, I wasn't ready to get all creative and put a twist on it. It was pretty easy and way more rewarding that knitting (for now). Give it a try. Expect to see some more wire crochet pieces popping up here in the near future.
I love it! I keep seeing crochet jewelry and it looks so cool but I have no knowledge of crochet so hesitant to start. I do bead weaving and that keeps me happy for now. But I still love the open look of what you did - good job!
ReplyDeleteI got some instructions for crocheting with wire. I've started one piece, but haven't had time to finish it yet. I need to get on it. Can't wait till tomorrow. LOL
