Silk Knotted Necklaces

Sat, Oct 17, 2015

One of the oldest, and most diverse, of fiber techniques, knotting has been used for a variety of purposes, ranging from the recording of information to fastening objects together, as well as being used as adornment and jewelry throughout the world.

Join MAD for this afternoon-long, hands-on workshop in creating your own personal silk necklace, using contemporary approaches to this historical technique.  By first constructing a simple single crochet length, then adding repurposed cut silk, knotted fringe, and other materials, students will create pieces of jewelry as one-of-a-kind as themselves.

 

All materials provided.  No previous experience necessary.
