Viking Victory

I have often wanted to take a class in Viking Knit and finally found time to squeeze it in. This piece, being my first one, is not perfect but I am happy with the results. My respect for all Viking Knitters out there has sky rocketed. The patience it takes to pull that long wire through to form each tiny loop is not found in the average human being. I can sit and coil for hours but to keep pulling and untangling that thin, little wire pushed even this crusty, old wire worker to her whit's end. Yet, here it is. I will wear it with a victorious smile!
