This flowing, whimsical design is packed with detail and a variety of techniques that can be used in any of your designs. The contrast of the thick, hammered wire against the delicately woven, knitted and knotted wire creates interesting detail.
Some of the techniques to be covered include:
• Stone setting using a Viking knit bezel, capture a stone securely in knitted wire
• Shaping/cold forging heavy gauge wire into a flowing frame
• Hammering wire
• Filing and sanding
• Weaving with wire
• Attaching beads to a frame wire securely
• An adaptation of the Viking knit weave to create a detail that is visually similar to the Turks head knot

Note to EU customers - The European Union implemented new rules on value-added tax (VAT) for digital items earlier this year. The rules, which took effect on January 1, 2015, state that VAT on digital items delivered via automatic download will be taxed based on the country where the buyer is located, not where the seller is located. The rules apply to any shop selling digital items that can be automatically downloaded at the time of purchase to buyers in the EU, no matter where the shop is located. To be clear, EU buyers – not Etsy or Etsy sellers – will be paying VAT as part of their total purchase price.
