Week 5 of Thing a Week

For week five, I whipped this out during a Super Bowl party. (Actually, I crept off to a room with less people in it to make it, but still!)



This ring is a project from Jodi Bombardier's book Weave, Wrap, Coil: Creating Artisan Wire Jewelry.  I've actually never done wire wrapping or weaving before and thought it would be an interesting technique to have, in case I ever need it, so I'll be working through projects from this book when I get stuck without a weekly project.  You can see my wrapping isn't quite perfect, but not bad for a first shot.  (Also, that ring shank would have been a lot rounder if I'd been home with my ring mandrel, but alas!)
