Open Wire Work Cabochon Pendant Tutorial

Posted: 29 Aug 2012 04:50 AM PDT


Guest Tutorial by Judy Larson
Judy sent me her amazingly comprehensive Viking knit bracelet tutorial and has followed up with an open wire work cabochon pendant tutorial which will compliment a Viking Knit necklace!


What distinguishes this design from other traditional cabochon ones is the beautiful curves of the open work.  She also put the wire tails to good use by creating an extended coiled bail to hold the Viking Knit necklace.  It makes for a striking focal.

Judy does not sell jewelry nor has a website. But she does give free jewelry making lessons locally and has graciously allowed me to share her PDFs originally written for her students. Read more about Judy here.

I have uploaded the PDF to Scribd, a free document sharing site.  I cannot attach PDFs to blog posts but I can embed the tutorials.  The easiest way to download the tutorial is to return to my blog, click on the post title and find the download link at the bottom of the embedded tutorial. More instructions here. You've accessed the site incorrectly if you came across a premium payment option.
