Chinese Knotting 101: Creating Wearable Art with One Knot
Jin Yong has always loved Chinese knotting. To create these fabulous earrings and choker, she used just one simple, versatile knot—the double coin. In diagrams and step-by-step instructions, she shows you how easy it is to knot your own distinctive jewelry.
Joker's Wild: Shrink-Plastic Collage Pins
Linda Milligan has found a fun use for her inkjet printer: She creates jewelry using White Printable Shrink Sheets from Avery.

Marie Plakos shares her method of incorporating stitched Shibori into her art cloth to create unique wearable art.
