Wire Wrapping Tutorial- Viking Knit Wire Wrapped Cabochon Pendant

Thank you for your videos. You are the first person to go slow enough and explain what you are doing. I am going to make one and also do a herringbone ring. I love 5hat you show and say what ga wire.

Awsome, I have a bunch of large CABS. Can’t wait to try this. My hands are twisted from arthritis, I was glad to see you shared your difficulties and challenges. I will be less frustrated when I come across the same situations. Have a Blessed day. Christine.

I absolutely love Viking knit. It's incredibly tedious, but makes gorgeous chain for chunky pendants.

I have done this before and I do think it's tedious, but the results is worth it. I have had many people ooo an aaah over it. Thanks for refresher!

Beautiful!!!! You have the patience of a Saint for doing the edging. 🥰

Originally Maratime vessels used this weave system ( only out of rope) as a kind of anti shatter net guard system for jugs and bottles while they transported them overseas. I've since used this technique on large bottles and beer steins, but never experimented with it with copper wire. From what I've seen, be it cord or cable, it fabricates gorgeous patterns. Now I'm half way tempted to do a jeweled bottle cover out of 3 lay ( strand) copper cable and place cabs on the cork cap and outer section of the bottle as a Christmas gift.

Wow! Very intricate, delicate and tedious! A cacophony of wire work... You make it look simple! Very talented! Thanks again, see you next time! Have a wonderful week! 😁

I personally love the look of double viking knit for chains. May have to try this with a cabachon.

😂 I tried this it’s the second stone I ever tried thanks for the great videos

[joycehock]

I have made bracelets with the Viking knit, single double and triple. I don't mind the tedium, it's calming. Funny thing is, I have a prenite stone I've been wanting to wrap. Thanks for the idea.

[dianejohnson]

I like it. I don’t like making it but love the results when it’s finished. 💚

Yes love the Viking weave is very distracting and help a lot if you are stress because you concéntrate on what you are doing so you forget what you are stressing about🤭🤭🤭 thank you love it very much ♥️ 💐
