Celtic Knot Necklace

[@francescagarten8194]

I'm from the U.S.; therefore, metrically challenged. Thank you for including the gauge equivalents in the list of supplies. Your designs are beautiful!

[@tyrroo]

Beautiful design, and excellent instructions! I also *really* appreciate that you kept a photo of the completed loop in the corner of the video the whole time, it really helps!

[@LilyTree]

Thank you! Having watched some tutorials before now and found myself completely lost, I really wanted to include the pic to help viewers navigate through the tutorial - or at least see the 'light at the end of the tunnel'! I'm glad you find it useful!

[@joannelewis4024]

Just wanted you to know I just finished my necklace! I wish I could post a picture so you could see what a wonderful teacher you are! thank you.

[@tishsmiddy71]

Thank you for sharing 🥰 nobody has said NO beads or gems and liver of sulfur ... I do warped necklace so I feel safe ! Mostly my beautiful things ! I’m so new and learning I’d be ashamed asking money so gifts to !

[@mawi1172]

I loved it. And the colors too! It takes me a full 12-14 inches to try this one. I need another hand. 😊

[@fnyfniken]

Thank you so much for this tutorial, Teresa! I have wondered for ages how to make a celtic knot without it going all wonky! Going to go make one right now!

[@gjk540]

Unfortunately, I don't have the patience to do this kind of work, but I appreciate your artistry. Beautiful!

[@LilyTree]

Thank you!

[@OliviaBlakeArts]

your tutorials are so helpful and you are so good at explaining things! Also I love your accent.

[@wr7819]

your work is so clean and precise, so easy to follow your instructions, love all your designs

[@susanmullins5312]

Lovely tutorial and designs. Nice and easy to follow your instructions.

[@miraworldus]

I just posted mine that I made on your Facebook page, along with the simple wirework earrings to match! Thank you SOOOOO MUCH, Teresa!

[@rhondateris2711]

I ended up annealing the piece in order to get the left hand wires through to the right. It worked out pretty good for me! Thank you so much for your tutorials - I love them!!!

[@LilyTree]

Ahhh, good thinking! Thanks for the comment. I'm glad it worked out!

[@cat52]

I had a heck of a time trying to do this with 18 gauge deadsoft wire. So I tried it with 20 gauge wire and it was a little easier to do. I love this technique and just wanted to say thank you for sharing!

[@LilyTree]

Sorry to hear that. I haven't had those problems, but I know how frustrating it is when jewellery-making turns into a struggle! I'm glad you found a solution though, and hope you enjoy the piece!

[@svetlanabarrow6026]

Very pretty. Thank you for tutorial.👍👍👍

[@judywall7528]

You give nice clear instructions. Thank you

[@StephenBevilacqua]

I love this piece so I made it thanks to you and it came out lovely than looked and it was published Oct,21 which is my birth day just a little coincidence. Thank you for a great tutorial

[@LilyTree]

Thank you, and a great co-incidence!

[@tammyuren6591]

Thank you for such a great tutorial. It was so easy to follow along with you. I watched the tutorial once then got my tools and materials together and followed along pausing as needed. My first came out ok but am getting better with each one and am now adding little touches to make it mine. Thanks again for a great tutorial

[@LilyTree]

Thanks Tammy! I'm glad you're having fun making the knots and developing the design!

[@twistedimaginings]

Absolutely stunning! I hope I can do it justice, when I have a go! X

[@LilyTree]

Thank you!

[@OldHag73]

Love this and the clock in the backround is soothing. I will defenently try this.

[@LilyTree]

Thank you! I only noticed the clock in my videos recently! It probably shouldn't be there, but it is made of copper so at least its appropriate! 😄 Enjoy your knot-making!

[@IWH777]

COULD YOU TELL ME WHAT GAGE THE WIRE IS... THE MM & CM CONFUSES ME IM IN AMERICA AN ITS EASIER FOR ME TO THINK IN GAGE... I HAVE YET TO FIND A CHART THAT SHOWS THE MM TO CM TO GAGE THAT I CAN REFER TO... I AM DYSLEXIC AN ITS REALLY HARD TO FIND THINGS THAT MAKE IT EASIER FOR ME TO DO THE SWITCHES BETWEEN ALL THE THINGS THAT I AM LEARNING FOR WIRE WRAPPING... LOVE YOUR WORK BTW YOU ARE FANTASTIC... THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME TO LEARN HOW YOU DO SUCH LOVELY THING TO MAKE BLESSINGS & B HOPE FILLED FRANKI

[@mjremy2605]

This is so lovely! Please tell us if Dead Soft or Half Hard wire was used in both 18 Gauge and 26 Gauge? Looks like Round wire too? Its a good ideal that you showed the finished design top left corner of screen during the process, for referral. Loved this necklace! So easy to make. Incredible that you made everything by hand, so creative!

[@fillingourbucket]

Lovely, may have to give it a go. Tks.

[@MichellesHandmadeCreations]

Beautiful! Probably not a project for a newbie, esp. a newbie with arthritis in my hands. Still appreciate the tutorial. I could probably make this knot with leather cording, a much softer material. TFS!

[@LilyTree]

Thanks Michelle! This knot isn't too difficult, but the wire can take some 'persuasion'! I'd definitely start with the savoy knot and see how you go with that first. As before, moving down to 0.8mm wire will make it a bit easier, as will making the knot a bit larger, but yes, it would look great in cord!

[@marybellerose7616]

Loved this tutorial! I will try this right now!

[@benambadshahkpk9572]

Wow marvelous, attractive, thanks for vedio

[@hubihobi]

Great job. Thanks for the video. I will try as soon as possible

[@LilyTree]

Thank you, and you're welcome! Have fun knotting!

[@carolah4687]

Beautiful piece.

[@enriquetellez5427]

Gracias por compartir, hacés un hermoso trabajo. Bendiciones!

[@sharonash2441]

I tried to make it and it is so hard to make it you make it look so easy

[@sharonash2441]

I think I'll try to make this but I will try and use it as a bracelet

[@LilyTree]

Great idea! I'd love to see how it works out!

[@leilakirkdietzolsen6741]

Beautiful

[@nataliegist2014]

Thank you.

[@murcielago241]

Beautiful 🇨🇷

[@АнгелМ-ы6е]

[@LilyTree]

Awww, thank you!

[@deby7821]

Gorgeous !

[@barbkafilmout9449]

That is WAY COOL. Thanks 😊

[@LilyTree]

Glad you like it!

[@jenniferpapastephanou4194]

Thank you! So well explained.

[@LilyTree]

Thank you!

[@joannelewis4024]

This is the first time I tried this, and I have to tell you, you make it look so easy! You do a great job, and you also are easy to follow. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world! I have one question. How the heck do you keep the three wires close together? thanks again!!! I wish I could post a picture so you could see my first attempt. :)

[@LindaTCornwall]

Love this design, but instead of just plain jump rings between sections how about small coils with loops each end? Simple to do and adds another interesting wire element!

[@LilyTree]

Brilliant idea Linda! One of the things I love about the Celtic Knot is the options for the chain and the elements you can add into it.

[@2degucitas]

Eye glass chains sold at the dollar store make great necklace fodder.

[@LilyTree]

Great idea!

[@sandyblue4235]

I like this

[@leilakirkdietzolsen6741]

So beautiful ❤️🇩🇰🥰

[@elizabethmiller1035]

thank you for showing this it was awesome

[@juliekbrooks]

Love this necklace and have been practicing the knot. What type and size of bead did you use? You make wonderful tutorials. Thank you!

[@muzzebus]

Wow, so cool!

[@LilyTree]

Thank you!

[@DeborahBergenbeaderreader]

You do such a great job of keeping wires together...love your art. Thanks for sharing! Do you use a specific wire?

[@LilyTree]

Thank you! I use pure, bare copper for these videos, which tends to be a little softer than the plated or coated wire. For this knot, I used 1mm diameter wire (18 gauge) but I think 0.8mm (20 gauge) should work too.

[@joannelewis4024]

@@LilyTree is it square wire? I love it, and you do a great job teaching how to make it. Thank you!!!

[@sandyrohn3868]

I found this design, lost it searched for 1.5 weeks found it and this is my first attemps. but check this out what do you think?

[@LilyTree]

Thanks for keeping searching! did you know you can set up your own playlist and add videos you like to that playlist? That might save them from getting lost in the youtube crowd in future! Unfortunately I can't see any picture/attachment, but feel free to go over to facebook.com/teresakennarddesigner/ and post it there. I'd love to see it!

[@sov0922]

妳創造了立體感。好棒

[@LilyTree]

谢谢

[@lexxikang]

Do you do 1:1 f2f tutorials ??

[@joannelewis4024]

I couldn't find your Facebook page, can you send me the link?

[@sarahwatkins606]

hi lily! IM NEW TO YOUR CHANNEL AND I LOVE IT! COULD U PLEASE TELL ME WERE I CAN GET THIS COPPER WIRE I CANT FIND THIS CERTIAN COLOR OF COPPER? THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS AND BEATIFUL TALENT!

[@joannelewis4024]

get pure copper wire and patina it

[@carlosolsilva]

Muito bom

[@sharonash2441]

it was the last part that I couldn't seem to get the wires through Straight they're all crinkled up

[@annjones3186]

Would be helpful if you give the GAUGE wire, instead of MM's only. Also, is it soft, half-hard, or hard wire?

[@LilyTree]

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try and add that in where I can, but I do have a conversion chart available at www.createwithcopper.co.uk/single-post/2016/09/14/Wire-basics . None of my wire suppliers state the hardness, but I would say it comes soft, which is ideal for this particular piece.

[@rhondateris2711]

Hi Ann, I printed this one out and taped it the side of my computer screen. It helps me a ton! And all the tutorials I've done, they use dead soft copper wire. www.firemountaingems.com/resources/encyclobeadia/charts/6404

[@annetteweadock4949]

What gauge is the wire?

[@LilyTree]

Hi Annette, I used 18 gauge for the knot - although you could use 19 or 20 gauge. And the wire for the chain is 26 gauge, but I chose that to go through the beads, so you could adjust it depending on the beads you use and their hole size.

[@danieldombai7267]

i failed to do this. Not a work for beginners

[@ghettomomma719]

is it weird that her hands dong match her face.... nails do though ;) Beautiful work- Thank you for sharing!!
