More Knitted Wire & Bead Bracelets




All knitted with nylon-coated wire bought at Walmart, "fashion cord" - Silver, .45mm and Gold, .30mm.

I'd like to try making a wide, cuff with little beads and wire that will bend and stay stiff.

Knitted Wire & Beads


I was playing around tonight trying my hand at loom-knitted wire and bead jewelry. My inspiration came from Bethany here.

I knitted this bangle bracelet out of 24 gauge wire and glass pearl beads. The gauge of wire wasn't really what I wanted to use, but that's all I have right now. I need to get a thinner wire that's easier to work with, but it was a good practice piece as I'd never knit with wire before.
