Viking Knit Shades of Copper Bracelet


Copper Viking Knit is the base of this bracelet. The knit uses 24 g wire and the accents are lampwork beads, copper toggle clasp & spacer beads from Beads of Tampa. This type of design offers the opportunity for many variations.

I was lucky to have the chance to take  Marcia Balonis' Viking Knit class at "Beads" now located in Oldsmar,  FL. Viking Knit is an ancient form of wire knitting that has been found in Viking grave sites.
