At first i looked at it and thought i would never get it right, but after a while it seemed as natural as breathing. Just keep practicing. I used an old arrow shaft to "knit" around, and also used sticky tape to get the spacing even around the shaft. I also used fine hand-drawn copper wire, 0,3mm thick to do about a half inch starter piece before switching over to sterling silver wire that i polished before knitting with it. Joining new wire onto the project was also a steep learning curve that i had to work out for myself,but i the end it looked great. <br />I hope that you get it right some time, and best of luck with it. <br /><br />Johan CombrinckJohan Combrinckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10798804535028283703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5299605680597423187.post-68195048900981664862008-07-23T17:15:00.000-05:002008-07-23T17:15:00.000-05:00I am trying trying trying to learn this Viking kni...I am trying trying trying to learn this Viking knit and I just have not been able to make it work,, yours are really beautiful!Cattrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07291487220133926123noreply@blogger.com
