They may be my very favorite project in the book!
They use rose quartz nuggets and silver plated or sterling silver wire.
The wire is knit around a frame that you form first. I particularly love
that until you see them up close,
You can't tell they are knitted.
It's your little secret. :)
People are still asking if I intend to sell them. So far, I don't think I will. We'll see though. But you can make your own! And I may even post a few tutorials when the book comes out.
I'm so glad that we're getting sneak peaks at the jewelry. I'm not going to lie, I really thought that knitted jewelry sounded like something I wouldn't be interested in at all, until I saw the necklace and earrings. They're modern and stylish!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if I really can make a pair! They're gorgeous, Rosemary.
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful Romi! I'll definitely be purchasing your book--can't wait until it's out!
ReplyDeleteLovely earrings, but I actually dropped by to tell how much I LOVE the waves of grain pattern on Knitty, and when I found out the designer practically lives next door to me, I had to come over and compliment you on it. I haven't actually started it yet, but I have the pefect yarn all set aside for it, and plan to make a trip to the bead store one of these days. I'll keep you posted on my progess (don't hold your breath, I'm a SLOW knitter) and if you like I can even send a pic. I enjoyed your pics of the Yarn Harlot, unfortunately I was not able to attend due to some serious jet lagging going on.
ReplyDeleteThose are gorgeous. I can't wait to see your book!
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, Romi! I mean, I was already waiting for your book and now I'm REALLY waiting for your book! I bet, too, that the photographs in your book will blow me away! Love, love those earrings!

Can you tell me when your book will be available? I looked on Amazon and found the book but no date. Your jewelry is absolutely gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI ordered the book today. These are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteAm working right now on my first Venezia, but working it as a ponytail holder.
Thank you for the wonderful patterns.
Wow, you really can't tell they're knitted. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThose are just gorgeous! Can't wait for the book to come out. :)
