BUBBLES - a NEW necklace making mold - easy to use
July 19, 2018
NEW on the site ! a fun and easy to use mold that will turn any wire crochet tube necklace into a bubble looking one.
I can talk about it endlessly but the best thing would be to watch this video :
The bubbles mold is 6.3 / 0.6 / 0.8 " (16 /1.5 /2cm) made of plastic and comes with strings.
The simplest and most straightforward option is a one color bubble necklace, if you wish to play with it a bit you can cage pearls or large beads in each bubble or in some of them.
tip: don't pull the tube through the draw plate for this one, and if you have no worries , afterwards do the opposite ... stretch it over a thick knitting needle, the harder the tube is the nicer the shape of your bubbles will be.
If you dont mind planning ahead and switching wires when crocheting, you can plan color changes, but I recommend to first try it on a plane tube necklace, so you can tell after how many rows in your work tension you should switch colors.
see this example made by Ruti Kraicer:
But this is not where it ends, you can stretch your creativity going further, there is never a limit ...
here is an example of what Zipi from one of my advanced classes did using it the bubble mold.
