| While watching Jeopardy on TV last week, a contestant mentioned Viking Knitting. Intrigued by the name, I looked up a tutorial on Youtube. After a few false starts, I finished the bracelet above. It came out pretty good, but somehow mine reminds me of the paperclip or staple necklaces and bracelets the girls used to make when I was in grade school. Not quit as nice as the ones you see on Youtube. |

| At first, I used 20 gauge wire and a 1" PVC pipe to start the weaving. The wire was too thick and the pipe was too big. |
 |
| I switched to 26 gauge wire and a half inch pipe and had better results. |
 |
| After knitting the wire, you pull it through smaller and smaller holes to compress it. I added Lobster Claw clasps to each end. |
