Viking Knit in Sterling Silver

While visiting my sister in Nashville for her wedding, I managed to finish 3 viking knit necklaces with 28 gauge sterling silver. Lovely, much needed rain kept us away from the tourist haunts, so hand me the wire and I'm happy.

The inner necklace is 15" long, made with 5 loops, which is a bit more open than I like. A grand experiment, and always a learning experience. It makes a lovely double wrapped bracelet on my 6 1/2" wrist, but I must resist keeping it, must'n I? hhhhmmmm...

The others are 17 1/2" and 19 1/2" with 7 loops, which gives a more substantial feeling.

Each currently has 4 jumprings, for slight adjustment to length. I can add a bit of chain as an extender, if they need to be a bit longer.

Each necklace is 1/8" wide which is 3.18mm.

All are quite supple and feel wonderful on the skin.

$10 per inch
