- A Kreinik website design by Jane Benton
Butler
- Skill Level: Beginner
Wire jewelry is
so popular right now, and so is crochet. This quick-to-make crocheted bug uses
wire in its wings and body along with Kreinik metallics to capture the
iridescence of a real dragonfly. Wear your art out-wear it as a pin, or make two
and attach to the tops of a purchased pair of shoes (slides or mules; we found a
great pair of sage green ones at Wal-mart).
Materials needed:
- one reel Kreinik Tapestry
(#12) Braid 085 Peacock
- one reel Kreinik Fine (#8)
Braid 070 Mardis Gras
- 15 inches of 22-gauge
craft wire
- sew-on pin back
- two beads (for eyes)
- beading thread and needle
- Tapestry needle
- wire cutters
