Making your own jewelry is fun and very easy and by crocheting bracelets and necklaces with wire it gives you a new medium to work with. If you have never learned the art of crochet before, then it would be wise to first learn the basic stitches like slip stitch, chain stitch, double crochet and single crochet working with yarn, before you progress to wire. Crocheting with wire is different from yarn as it does not stretch the way yarn does. Mabel van Niekerk's main passion in life is travel.
