About this Event
Explore an ancient wire technique known as Viking Knit. The technique is not actually knitting, but made when wire is manipulated in a circular, looping fashion. Viking Knit artifacts have been found in Viking grave goods in the form of jewelry and garment trim.
In this class, students will use metal wires similar to what was used during the Viking era to create a one-of-a-kind bracelet. The technique can also be used to craft earrings and necklaces.
