How to double your wire crochet speed

Traditionally when I was wire crocheting a spiral necklace in the Invisible Spool Knitting technique, ISK, I would make one row and the following, one color per row.

But while demonstrating to a student how its done , I realized I could actually make both rows at the same time!

this save on time and DOUBLES your speed ..

watch the video to better understand how its done !

if you dont look for the spiral effect simply use 2 spools of the same color , but if you do, make sure to choose 2 wire colors very different from one another or you will end up with a blend. black and gold, red an silver etc... I used ash gray and rose gold for this sample.

If you are new to ISK , hop over to the beginners tutorial I published right here on instructables : https://www.instructables.com/id/Wire-crochet-for-begginers/

Enjoy !
