Week 38 First Attempt at netted bezel

This is my first attempt at a netted bezel. And it failed completely. It doesn't show on the scan but net netting is very uneven. I did get better at it after the second row but my wire snapped ! After it snapped it attached a new wire and worked on only to have my wire snap again and this time the patch in the second row also snapped again :(. I have patched it up but it looks horrible. So I'm going to try again. If anybody has any suggestions on how to deal with work hardening on Fine Silver please lot me know. I tried annealing it with a lighter (don't have anything better) but that only seemed to make things worse.

Thanks Eni for a great new tutorial. I'm sure with some more practice I will improve my netting and I love the technique!

Update: I tried it again and this time it worked without breaking the wire. So I replaced the old photo with a new one of the pendant.
