Besides making jewelry, I also enjoy crocheting. It’s usually a seasonal hobby for me because I typically only crochet in the winter. I use wool to crochet hats and scarves for myself and my friends. Recently, I decided to try something new and intricate: wire crochet bracelets.
Discovering my Journey with Wire Crochet
I’ve tried crocheting with wire before, but not these intricate and complicated designs. Now, the time has come for that as well. Now I have desire to crochet these both in winter and summer. These bracelets are truly beautiful; they have an amorphous form but feel light and airy on the wrist. The sparkle of the glass rondelle beads adds elegance, and the width of the bracelet gives it a full appearance. I’m really satisfied with them!
The Creative Process
Now I’m hooked on wire crocheting! It’s incredibly contagious. Starting a new project is always challenging because wire doesn’t cooperate at first. But as the design takes shape in my hands, I can’t wait to finish it. I’m still figuring out the best wire gauge for crochet jewelry designs, but I’m excited to experiment and learn. Stay tuned!
My First Wire Crochet Bracelet Projects
I am thrilled to share my first wire crochet bracelet projects. Two bracelet features a sliding tube clasp, and the other is a bangle without a clasp. You can see a detailed video presentation of these beautiful pieces on my YouTube video above.
Behind the Scenes on Instagram
Creating wire crochet bracelets has been a learning curve. The wire can be stubborn initially, but with practice, my hands have become more adept.For a behind-the-scenes look at my creative process, check out my Instagram reel. It shows how I attempted wire crochet several times until my hands got used to it and the design started to flow.
Future Plans
I would love to create a video tutorial showing how to make these beautiful bracelets. However, I haven’t yet mustered the courage to do so because I lack experience in making tutorial videos. But who knows, maybe soon!
Conclusion
I need to buy more materials since everything I’ve made so far was from what I had when I was a hobbyist. Wire crochet has opened up a new world of creativity for me, and I can’t wait to explore it further.
