Guess who's coming back to BeadFX? Angela Peace!After teaching two packed Chinese Knotting classes last May, Angela will be back in August to teach her introductory class and a new intermediate class!
Saturday August 16th, 10am - 2pm
This introductory course will introduce you to the traditional art of Chinese knotting. You will learn how to tie basic knots, such as the button knot and snake knot, and learn how to create an adjustable button knot cord fastener. We will also discuss how to incorporate these techniques into your jewellery when stringing or making pendant style necklaces. During the class you will complete an Asian style key ring.
Sunday August 17th, 11am - 3pm
This intermediate course will give you the skills to go beyond the button knot. Learn how to make a knotted loop closure, add a metal clasp, change the number of working cords and finish cord ends. By the end of the course you will have learned the techniques required to design and make a classic style necklace. During the class you will complete a classic style bracelet using all of the skills needed for larger necklace projects. As a prerequisite for this course you must be able to tie single and double button knots.
