Tutorials: Who needs words?

When I made these earrings here:




another wire wrapping friend of mine asked me how to make the knot. I explained thusly: You cut square wire about yay long, fold it in half with loop at the end, squeeze the legs together and then use your fingers to give them a little curve. Stick em together and pull 'em tight and finally curl the ends of the legs to lock it. Easy peasy!

My friend's side of this conversation was vague nodding and perhaps a little backing away. My helpful hand motions were not as helpful as I thought. So I went home, made another knot and took pictures while I did it.

The pictures in dramatic fade-away form



Those Knick Knots were sold quite some time ago but you can find other stuffs I made at my Etsy shop.
