3-Needle Chain: Delicate Style

SilverSilk 3-Needle Chain joins the strength and beauty of metal with the intricacy of finely woven knit. You can use it to string size 6 seed and other large-hole beads, make warps on a beading loom, braid it with a Kumihimo disk, arrange it in resin, or simply use it as a singular jewelry chain. The open weave makes this chain drape wonderfully, and the space between the wires creates a lacy effect. You’ll love this imaginative addition to your jewelry making stash!

 

 

SilverSilk’s Most Delicate Chain: 3-Needle

How 3-Needle Chain is Made
Our precision SilverSilk knitting machine uses three needles to knit three extremely fine wires into a delicate-looking, durable chain. The 32-gauge, 99.9% copper wire is permanently enameled and is tarnish-resistant for long-lasting jewelry. The woven knitted wire chain is 1.5mm in diameter and does not have an inner core. 3-Needle chain comes as a 5-foot spool in a variety of magnificent colors and can be cut to any length.

2mm Cord Caps
Pair 3-Needle with our 2mm Cord Caps for a flawless finish on bracelets, earrings, keychains, necklaces, and more. To get started, choose your chain color, and use craft wire flush cutters to cut up to four 3-Needle chains to the desired length. Simply gather them up and apply a dab of jewelry glue (Loctite glue is recommended) inside the open end of the cord cap. Gently insert the chain ends into the cap, ensuring a snug fit. Allow your piece to rest for 30 minutes to let the glue dry completely before wearing, ensuring a secure and polished finish.
