Nothing clever to say

So, I've seen tatted jewelry before.  A lot of that is hit or miss.  Some of it can be glorious, but it can be rancidly kitschy, too.  (and I like kitschy)

But the first time I saw knitted/crocheted wire, my mind immediately jumped to tatting.  I didn't know how to shuttle tat, but it would be easy to do it with a needle.  That was a couple of years ago, and since I never really got into wire (well, until recently--I may or may not have spent an hour of what should have been study time downloading free patterns from beadwork's website) it's never been more than a fleeting fancy.


BUT SOMEONE FINALLY DID IT

.... yes, I am excited enough about it to type in all caps.  I would get copper wire to practice in first.  I'm on a freezing spend, and I don't have the car today, otherwise I would be at the craft store right now.
