Bracelets, Necklaces and 2 styles of Earrings £5
Knitting with wire often results in a very stiff creation, but by using Erica’s innovative technique you can create a very fluid like feel to the knitted strips which when braided together have very tactile quality.
You’ll need the pattern, some wire, some clasps to neaten the ends, your choice of closure and a standard gauge knitting machine.
The pattern is 7 pages long and packed with information on how to knit the strips, tips for knitting with wire, bracelets, necklaces and earrings. Also includes many variations with clear diagrams. There is a very good close up 7”x5” photograph on the front.

“Scrumpleknit” Necklace and "Scribble" Earrings
£5
This is an unusual and quirky design for a knitted wire necklace. So called because the finished necklace can be gathered up and crushed in your hand to keep it's "crumpled" look.
I have included 2 designs for earrings in the pattern. One is quite a simple design pictured on the cover and the other design is called “Scribble” earrings because the wire is randomly knotted into loose dangly earrings - each pair unique!
