CHAIN II
INSTRUCTORS: JANET & JOE TROSINO
Please read the description from Chain I. No beginners please. We will review basic weaves, if needed and continue from there with weaves selected individually by each student. This may include: Celtic Visions, GSG, Jens Pind, HP 4-1, dragonscale, viperscale, vipera berus kinged, candy cane cord and many others. For those who wish to add beads or crystals to their chainmaille, the student can make more complex weaves, such as Spine of the Centipede, Glass Caterpillar, Caged Jewels, or your own creation. Variations of each pattern will be discussed.
Joe will cut your individually selected projects in either copper, colored enameled copper, sterling silver, some Argentium sterling, silver filled, gold filled, some aluminum or anodized aluminum, some square wire in various metals, and a few titanium kits and a limited supply of niobium rings. Neoprene rings will be available for certain projects. The instructor will supply all wire.
The class fee covers a notebook with all printed tutorials and other useful reference materials, bead mat, jump ring opener, ruler, needle tool and storage box. Your total cost will depend on the number of projects (bracelets, necklaces or earrings) made and the metals used for those projects.
Class Fee: $45
Est Materials Fee: $150+
Prerequisite: Chain I or prior experience with chainmaille.
