<i>Kumihimo Wirework Made Easy:</i> Infinity Necklace

✓Join us at Maker Festivals Pennsylvania, the ultimate crafting extravaganza in Lancaster from July 31-August 3, 2024, and we will once again be bringing our fiber artists with us! Our festival lineup will have thousands of fiber artists, and jewelry makers!

When planning designs for her book Kumihimo Wirework Made Easy, author Christina Larsen knew she wanted to explore her wire kumihimo design in multiple pieces of jewelry. The Infinity Necklace is an elegant braided wire piece that features Christina’s infinity design in necklace form.

Customize this necklace by using finer gauge wire for a more delicate necklace, or finishing with patina for added depth within in the braid.
