 Alternative
Designs:
The pattern for making these earrings on the WigJig Centaur is shown at
right. This pattern is exactly the same size as the pattern on the
WigJig Cyclops.
The earring shown at left is an alternative design. This design uses 8 1/2" of wire instead of the 6 1/2" used in the design described earlier. To make this design you proceed as you did making the original design until you get to Step 11. At that point, instead of wrapping the wire completely around peg 1, you push the wire against peg 1 as you did against peg 3 and 4. Doing that will cause the wire to overlap on the segment from pegs 1 to 4. The overlap will happen on opposite sides of the wire component. To finish the triangle wire component, you use 1/2 round wire to wrap the wire segments together on either side. If you look closely at the earring at left you can see the places where the wire overlaps and the wraps take place. After you have the wraps in place, you cut the excess wire at both ends. We hope you like our Celtic Triangle Jewelry Wire and Beads Earrings. They may be just the thing to wear on St. Patrick's Day. |
