How to Make Multi-Row Viking Knit Earrings

If you're looking for a fun and unique way to create jewelry, then Viking knit is a great technique to try. This ancient method of weaving wire dates back to the Vikings, and it creates a beautiful and intricate design that can be used to make a variety of jewelry pieces. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to make multi-row Viking knit earrings that are sure to impress.

Materials:

  • 18 gauge wire
  • Wire cutters
  • Mandrel (a pencil or pen can be used as an alternative)
  • Earring hooks
  • Round-nose pliers

Instructions:

Step 1: Cut Your Wire

Start by cutting a length of wire that is approximately two feet long. This will allow you to make both earrings using the same piece of wire. If you prefer, you can use two separate pieces of wire for each earring.

Step 2: Create Your Viking Knit Base

Use your mandrel to create a Viking knit base for your earrings. To do this, start by wrapping the end of your wire around the mandrel, leaving a small tail at the end. Then, use your round-nose pliers to create a loop at the end of the wire, and slide the loop off the mandrel. This loop will be used to attach your earring hook later on.

Next, use your mandrel to create a series of loops that are all the same size. To do this, wrap your wire around the mandrel and then slide the loop off. Continue doing this until you have created a chain that is long enough for your desired earring length.

Step 3: Create Your Multi-Row Viking Knit

Now that you have your Viking knit base, it's time to create your multi-row design. Start by folding your chain in half, and then twisting the two ends together to create a double strand. Then, use your mandrel to create a series of loops that are slightly smaller than the ones in your base chain. You can do this by using a smaller mandrel or by wrapping the wire tighter around the mandrel. Slide the loops onto your double strand chain.

Continue creating smaller loops and sliding them onto your chain until you have created your desired number of rows. You can make as many rows as you like, but keep in mind that each row will make your earring slightly longer. Once you have your desired number of rows, trim off any excess wire.

Step 4: Attach Your Earring Hooks

Use your round-nose pliers to create a small loop at the end of your Viking knit chain. Then, use the same pliers to open the loop on your earring hook, and slide it onto the loop at the end of your chain. Close the loop on your earring hook securely, and repeat the process for the other earring.

Conclusion

That's it! You now have a beautiful pair of multi-row Viking knit earrings that are sure to be the envy of all your friends. This technique can also be used to create a variety of other jewelry pieces, so feel free to.

To finish off the earrings, attach your chosen earring hooks to the top loops of the ear wires. And voila! You now have a stunning pair of multi-row Viking knit earrings to wear and show off.

In conclusion, the multi-row Viking knit technique is a fun and unique way to create beautiful earrings that will surely turn heads. With some practice, you can easily master this technique and create even more intricate designs. So go ahead and give it a try, and let your creativity run wild!
