Viking Knit Jewelry Embellishments Tutorial

The Viking Knit Jewelry Embellishments ebook tutorial was born out of my love of color.  I enjoy making viking knit (soothing to make the stitches), but I wanted more than just a chain.  I wanted something that would stand out, something that said, “look at me!”.

I played around for quite awhile, and started using colored wire this time.  I quickly learned about how it works, compared to copper or brass wire.  And I used it to make some really fun pieces of jewelry.

So colored wire — what else?  Embellishments were the next logical step in “upping the game” (so to speak).

Beads were my first thought.  And while I have used seed beads in the viking knit in my previous ebook (Intro to Viking Knit Jewelry), I hadn’t used larger beads before.  Now was the time to experiment!

And experiment I did.  🙂

What’s in the Tutorial?

In all my experimentation (which I did over several months), I learned about using colored wire.  Using multiple wires.  Ideas for end caps.  And here’s what I teach you.

• How to use colored wire.  There are do’s, don’ts and “gotchas” that I tell you about, so that you don’t get halfway into a project and find all your color flaking off (ask me how I know….).

• Using multiple wires.  I wondered about using more than one wire to make the viking knit, so I came up with something called “the caterpillar effect”.  It’s got an organic look and feel about it, and feels so good on.
• Using multiple chains.  If you’ve made viking knit, you probably have some pieces laying around.  Too big to throw out, too small to do much with.  Well guess what — you can join those two chains into one gorgeous piece of jewelry!
•  Triple your pleasure with Triple Knit viking knit!

There’s lots in the ebook.  It’s 40 pages and has 91 photos, so you have a lot of instructions and plenty of close-ups.  Shown on this page are two of the four projects.

For this ebook, you should already know how to make the basic viking knit.  If you don’t already know, check out my Intro to Viking Knit Jewelry ebook and learn about this wonderful jewelry medium.
