Wire work

I got some wire thread at the knitting and stitching show and decided to have a go at crocheting with it



I added a few beads to the wire circle for added effect and made a small basket

Then I tried making a much larger basket


I soon discovered that the wire was a little too thick so I will have to buy some thinner wire and test that

I also realised that is best to use highly contrasting beads... The clear and lightly coloured ones just don't work well and are very difficult to see on the finished design

I will post the next projects with the thinner wire soon
