Hi! I'm Robin with trees-mom.com. We are making a video for Expert Village today. We are crocheting wire to make a Gothic bracelet. We finished our 3 rows, and this is what we have. We're going to add the clasp now. We' re going to do a toggle clasp for this bracelet. What that is one end is a loop and one is a bar, and it goes through the loop. The way we attach this is we go to the end of our bracelet, and we're going to push the wires together at the end so that they're kind of at a point. We have the wire, and we're going through the loop of the toggle clasp. We're just sewing it on just like you would with a needle and thread. It's just going to go in and out of the toggle clasp. 3 or 4 times should secure it good enough. Then we're going to go to the other end, use the loop part of the toggle clasp. Again, we're pushing the edges of the wire together to make it kind of a peak there. We're going to put this on the wire. I think we're going to cut this a little bit shorter and just sew this on the end. There you have your toggle clasp that will close your bracelet.
