A wire crochet bracelet (7" long, 5 stitches wide) uses about 25–35 feet of 28-gauge wire. Each stitch consumes roughly 4 inches of wire, and rows average 3 per inch of finished length.
28–30 gauge is standard for ISK (invisible spool knitting). 26 gauge works for Viking knit or structured pieces that need more rigidity.
| Gauge | Diameter | Ft per oz | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 26 ga | 0.4mm | ~30 ft | Viking knit |
| 28 ga | 0.3mm | ~48 ft | Standard ISK |
| 30 ga | 0.25mm | ~72 ft | Fine ISK |
| 32 ga | 0.2mm | ~100 ft | Micro crochet |
ISK (Invisible Spool Knitting) uses a crochet hook and spool to create a tube of interlocking loops. Viking knit uses a mandrel and creates a chain-mail-like tube. Both get drawn through a drawplate for the final shape.
A wire crochet bracelet in copper or craft wire costs $1–$3 in materials. Sterling silver wire raises the cost to $8–$15 per bracelet.
