This DVD teaches how to do Double Knit Viking Weave. Viking Weaving is a type of jewelry-making that shapes wire into a woven tube for bracelets or necklaces. It requires no soldering or heavy tools.
This class teaches the handheld dowel method; it's both quick to learn & portable for travel.
The core project is a Viking Weave bracelet. Additional details are included for making a necklace or for adding pendant or beads. No prior jewelry-making training is required.
Supplies
A list is printed on the DVD case, and the class provides additional details. Experienced wire workers might choose to make their own bracelet clasp & end caps (not taught in this class).
Tools
In addition to common jewelry-making and wire wrapping tools, this class requires a draw plate & a 3/8-inch dowel. These two tools are available from several sources (explained in class).
