Adoro a versatilidade do fio copper e as possibilidades são muitas. Os trabalhos com fio copper no Brasil ainda não são muito conhecidos,...
Welcome to Lesson 3: Single Crochet. If you missed Lesson 2: Chain Stitch, you can find part a here and part b here. Be sure you have a good handle on chain stitch, as we will start with a chain today. You will need to have all of your materials, including the scribe, for today’s lesson. Live Wire First, I need to explain about the live wire. You will need to take your hook out of the crochet from time to time. When you put it back in, it is important to be sure all of your wires are still going the right way. When I refer to the “live wire” or “live side”, I am talking about the portion of the wire that is closest to the spool. live wire Notice that the “live side” of the wire is on the side of the hook closest to you. It will always be on this side of the hook. Anytime you pull your hook out, make sure you re-insert it with the live side nearest you. Materials For this sample, I will use a no.8 hook and 30 gauge copper wire. In metric that is a 1.50mm hook and 0.254mm wire. I will make a nine row sample with 9 stitches (including the turning chain) in each row. I will explain these terms as I go. Base Chain To start, make a chain of ten stitches. In abbreviated instructions, that will read as ch. 10 This is your base chain. You can count the chain stitches as illustrated below. Notice that you do not count the loop currently on the hook (your live loop). base chain with stitch count The First Single Crochet (sc) Now you have your base chain. You will insert the hook into the third chain from the hook. third ch from hook Always insert the hook from front to back. inserting the hook Take the wire over the hook and behind the existing chain. This is called a yarn over (yo). yarn over yarn over detail Draw the live wire (your yo) through the chain and keep it on the hook.You now have two loops on the hook. This is called drawing up a loop. draw up loop Yarn over again. yarn over Draw that yo through the two loops on the hook. the first single crochet (sc) You just finished your first single crochet (sc)! Experienced yarn crocheters please note: I do not wrap the live wire around my left fingers for tension as is done with yarn. The stiffness of the wire is sufficient to maintain tension. Another Single Crochet Do it again. Note the asterisk... it is a marker for future reference. *Now, insert the hook in the next chain to the left. insert hook in next ch Yarn over (yo). yo Draw up loop. You should have two loops on the hook again. two loops on the hook Yarn over (yo). yo Draw the yo through both loops on the hook. the second sc You have now done two single crochets (sc). Finishing the Row Repeat from * until you run out of chain (that should be 6 more times). Now you have one row and 9 stitches completed. That is, one turning chain and 8 single crochet. When counting stitches, the turning chain counts as a stitch. the first row Open the Loops This part is an extra step for experienced yarn crocheters. Chain 1 (this will be your turning chain for the next row) and remove your hook. turning chain Take your scribe and insert it into the first stitch to stretch it open a bit. You do not need to open the base of the turning chain. It kind of looks like a stitch but don’t think of it that way. Call it the base of the turning chain in your head at all time to avoid confusion and miscounting. inserting the scribe Work your way across the row, opening each stitch. As you are poking your scribe through each stitch, be sure you pick up the front and back portion of the stitch. When you look at the work from the top, the whole stitch makes a teardrop shape. It is really important to open the whole stitch. picking the whole stitch When you come to the end of the row, be sure to open the turning chain. It can be a little tricky; it doesn’t look like a normal stitch. Go ahead and open it. picking the turning chain Now that you have opened the loops, count the stitches and make sure you have the right number on your first row. count the stitches For the purpose of counting stitches in a row, note that #1 is the base of the turning chain I mentioned before. Also, stitch #9 is the turning chain. The turning chain is actually a chain stitch and not a single crochet. You count it as a stitch when you are checking the number of stitches in a row. Row Two You are ready to start row two. First you need to put your hook back into the live loop. Make sure the live side is closest to you. put the hook back in the live loop Turn the work. Keep your hook with its loop in your right hand and turn the work from left to right with your left hand. turn the work Take a look at your work and identify the base of the turning chain. base of the turning chain Insert your hook into the first stitch. Yarn over and draw up a loop. You have two loops on your hook. yo and draw up loop Yarn over again and draw the loop through both loops on the hook. You’ve now started row two! first sc on row 2 Keep on going down the row, making single crochets in each stitch. When starting a stitch, make sure you insert the hook under both parts of the stitch below, just like when you opened the loops with the scribe. working the next stitch Be sure to make a single crochet in the turning chain of the row below. make a stitch in the turning chain At the end of row 2, you should have made one turning chain and 8 single crochet for a total of 9 stitches. Now, chain 1. Remove your hook and open the loops with your scribe just like you did on row 1. picking the loops on row two You have completed row 2. Take a break and admire your work! row 2 completed Row 3 and Beyond Now you know all the steps for making single crochet. To keep going, just repeat what you did for row two until you can make nice, even stitches. carrying on with row 3 all the way to row 9 Finishing Out I have done 9 rows now. I am ready to finish out. Work your final row as before until you get to the last stitch. On the last stitch, yarn over and draw up a loop as before. working the last stitch Now yarn over and draw through both loops on the hook to make the last stitch. the last loop Clip the wire. I use my wire nippers to cut the live wire and pull the hook until the end of the wire pulls through. Stretch the loops with your scribe as you did for the previous rows. row 9 loops are all stretched Use your fingers to stretch and flatten your sample. You can pull extra hard on the edges to even out the sides. go on and pull really hard, it's strong stuff before stretching after stretching Clean Up To make your sample look nice and neat, tie off the ends by wrapping them around the loops three times. Then, clip the tails and tuck the pokey bits with your needle nose pliers. tie off the last stitch tie off the base chain nip off the tails tuck in the pokey bits You have now finished your nine stitch, nine row sample of single crochet (sc). Be sure to count your stitches carefully, as you work. If you find that you have an extra stitch, make sure you are not inserting your hook into the base of your turning chain. If you are short a stitch, make sure you are making a stitch in the turning chain of the row below. the finished sample Abbreviations Your new abbreviation is sc for Single Crochet. The instructions for this lesson in abbreviated format are as follows: start: ch 10 row 1: sc in 3rd ch from hook. sc 7 sts. ch 1, turn. row 2: sc 8 sts. ch 1, turn. rows 3-8: repeat row 2. row 9: sc 8 sts. Cut off and draw up lp. I hope you are enjoying crocheting in wire. Keep practicing and it gets easier. When I started learning, I had to look things up over and over until they came naturally. Don’t sweat it if you need to refer to the pictures and instructions frequently! If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments section below or on my facebook page Annabelle Jones Jewelry. Don’t be shy; if you are confused, somebody else probably has the same question! See you next week for Lesson 4: Half-Double Crochet.

Today I had the itch to create something, and have been wanting to make some kind of jewelry lately, so I decided that is what I'd do today! I love making crocheted wire jewelry, and had made a crocheted pendant, but never made a necklace to go with it, so that is the project I decided to tackle!! Crocheting wire is just like crocheting yarn, it's just a different material! If you already know how to crochet, then this necklace will be a breeze for you!! If not, hopefully the instructions {and pictures}will help you, so that you can make your own necklace!! First, you need to make sure you have all of your supplies! Wire--26 or 28 gauge works best {I used copper wire} Clasp {I used copper} Assortment of beads Crochet Hook--size I Pendant {I used a crocheted one that I had previously made} Lay out 30 beads in whatever order you'd like. I just did it random. Unwind about 2 feet of wire and string all of the beads onto your wire. {The wire will still be connected to the spool. DON'T cut it yet!} Once all of the beads are on, leave about a 5 inch tail and make a loop by twisting the wire. Get ready to start crocheting by putting the hook through the loop. Hold the tail of the wire with your thumb, ring finger, and pinkie. Hold the wire that is connected to the spool in between your first and middle finger. To make a crocheted chain, grab the wire with the hook and pull through the loop. For this necklace, chain 14 times. It should look like this! Now it is time to start adding the beads into the chains. Do this by pulling 1 bead down to the previous chain, and then pull the wire through the loop with the hook. This will capture the bead into the chain. Do that with all 30 beads, and it should end up looking like this. Then, make 14 more empty chain stitches like you did before. Cut the wire, leaving a 5 inch tail, then chain one more time pulling the wire through the last chain. Now you are done with your first strand!! This necklace is made up of 3 strands. So repeat the previous steps 3 times!! For the other two strands I only used 15 beads and then did and empty chain in between each bead. Also for the pendant, just count it as one of the beads, but make sure to string it in the center! When you have all three strands completed, lay them all out together. Twist the three ends together, and then start braiding the three strands. Keep braiding until you get to the end, and then twist the other three ends together. Make a wire-wrapped loop on each end with round nose pliers, and attach the clasp. {I will do a video tutorial on making wire-wrapped loops in the future!} And now you are done, and have a fun new piece of jewelry to wear!! Enjoy!! I hope that this tutorial made sense! It was a lot more difficult to try and explain with pictures than I thought it would be! Hope your weekend is going great!! ~mariah~

Gosto muito de me aventurar nas novidades, e uma delas é a união de crochê e fio de cobre. Confesso que não é tão fácil de tecer quanto parece, mas o resultado é incrível. Infelizmente não encontrei desses fios de cobre coloridos para realizar meus experimentos, então tive que me contentar com o fio de cobre comum, que adquiri junto a uma empresa de assistência técnica. Confeccionei apenas dois pingentes, os quais se tornaram peças especiais entre os meus acessórios. Abaixo seguem algumas ideias (e trabalhos primorosos) que obtive na internet, bem como uma amostra dos fios disponíveis para venda no exterior. fonte: https://www.etsy.com/market/copper_wire_crochet fonte: https://www.etsy.com/market/copper_wire_crochet fonte: https://www.etsy.com/market/copper_wire_crochet fonte: https://www.etsy.com/market/copper_wire_crochet fonte: https://www.etsy.com/market/copper_wire_crochet fonte: https://tethered2home.wordpress.com/page/13/
We collaborated with the talented Bev of Boo- Knits to create this special shawl pin design. You can see and purchase Boo-Knits gorgeous lace shawl patterns at http://www.ravelry.com/designers/boo-knits and read her blog about her knitting at http://boo-knits.blogspot.co.uk/ Aluminum makes the pin much lighter than it appears-really! We also make this design in copper and a smaller simpler version in sterling silver that can be found in the Shawl Pins / Hair pins section of our shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/nicholasandfelice?section_id=5011288 The pin measures about 2 7/8 - 3 3/8" (7.5 - 8.8cm) long and about 1 1/2 - 1 3/4" (3.9 - 4.5cm) across the widest part. The stick pin part with the "B" top that slips through the main design to secure the pin is about 4 5/8 - 5 1/4" (11.9 - 12.8cm) long. You can gently bend the outer edges of the main piece to create a looser or tighter fit with the pin. Although we hammer the metal to give it extra rigidity and strength it is still quite bendable and malleable. It can be worn as a sweater brooch too! This pin would work best on a knit or crocheted open weave type garment and is not intended for tightly woven cloth fabric. Check out our Shawl Pins/Hair Pins section of our shop to see our other shawl pin designs: http://www.etsy.com/shop/nicholasandfelice?section_id=5011288 Our Hair Sticks and Shawl Sticks section: https://www.etsy.com/shop/nicholasandfelice?section_id=19022255 Our Hair Forks and Shawl Forks section: https://www.etsy.com/shop/nicholasandfelice?section_id=19022263 The pin in the pictures is a representative pin and not the exact same one that you will receive. We hand make each pin and try hard to make them look the same. There may be some minor differences but the one you will receive will look very similar to the one you see in the pictures. Sometimes a gray mark may be left on the exit and entrance points of the pin on a light colored garment due to the abrasive nature of wool on aluminum. Aluminum does not tarnish like silver does. It may become a little duller over time. It can be washed in soapy water and shined up with a polishing cloth. All our jewelry comes wrapped in colorful tissue paper, in a nice gift box and tied with a bow ready for gift giving. Copyright 2013 - 2024 by Felice Luftschein and Nicholas Carter
