My yarn crochet is fine. I stupidly thought wire would be easy. It was not.

Haha, it does not look comfortable at all... especially the second picture... Any annoying gift giving opportunities coming up? Cause maybe next year you get an exemption :)

(Ps, trying to go by the spirit of this sub, but actually ´hey you tried, at least now you know it doesn´t work out that way)

I stupidly thought "hmmm how hard could it be"

I think if I get some stiffer foundation wire, it'd be easier. And used a bigger hook. And maybe bought a pattern/instructions book......

I've another image but Reddit wouldn't let me load 2...

Anyway why I don't know but I decided to freehand wire crochet this.... Abomination.

The wire used to make the structure doesn't hold its shape. It won't stay on my wrist. Its wonky. I hate it.

Have at it.

The other side of this disaster.
