Whilst scouring one of my various sources *cou-internet-gh* for information on champion landscapes (winning in some people's eyes) with open-field systems with nucleated villages, I happened to come across a great pattern for a type of jewellery that I had not seen, or even tried to make, for about - let's say - a hundred years. Ok, not that long, but it's been a while since I made a................. friendship bracelet.
So, I found this pattern via www.pinterest.com and decided to create. I grabbed a handful of thread, two colours, four strands of each, and started knotting! I followed the pattern given and produced a line of 13 hearts (an unlucky number, I hear you say, but only to some) this number fitted well. I finished up by top and tailing the piece with a crimp and four 6mm jump rings and finally a trigger clasp.
I have somehow managed to make 3 more of these - now, back to those books and let's unravel what was once a working medieval landscape........ back in a bit xx
Love it em! Please make me one for June ;) I'll pay in HK dollars! xxx
ReplyDeleteI've spent the afternoon untangling a massive knot of jewellery and after some very careful detangling, and many a cup of tea, I've freed all 6 necklaces! Hooray!
