jasoninsd I wanted to show you this, but I didn't want to post it in your weave thread. The top of this has netting, the sides are done with one weave, the bail with another and the back with another.
I don't like the bail. This was a test piece. I never did do another, but I'd like to see your take on it. You seem to have a knack and like for weaving. You can work this out.
I made the woven frame. Netted across the top, dropped the cab in and cinched it up to the netting with a straight weave on back. Then I finished the bail. At least- that's how I remember it.
This is rather small- about 48mm total. It's a sugilite. I always meant to unwrap this and redo it in silver... but me and weaving.......... |

Thanks for posting this...and the challenge!  I think I can figure this one out. I actually like the bail! The bezel is a SICK weave...but I think I get it... *I did immediately look up netting. I knew what it was...but I didn't know what it was called! LOL |

I have the original design tute by Eni Oken, but I don't like it. I tried to find the old vid I followed because it was really simplified, but I can't find it anymore.

I actually want to see if I can figure out the weave by looking at your pictures. I think I understand how it's constructed...but if I "alter" it a little, I can say:   |

But then you add to it by weaving the back wires through it. But, I'm sure you figured that out.  You'll be a master in no time. |
