About the Event

Description:  Circe’s Promise 

Quite the ferocious feminist, Circe constantly sought to maintain power over men, hence why she transformed Odysseus’ men to swine when they arrived on her island of Aeaea. But cunning Odysseus, with the help of Hermes, evaded her magic spell and therefore, in wonder and amazement, she fell in love with him. Before ‘allowing’ her to seduce him, he managed to persuade her, with his usual silver-tongued wiles, to restore them as men. The sailors all remained on Aeaea for a year, whilst Odysseus and Circe conducted their affair and, even though she bore him a son (and two others at later visits to the island), Odysseus extracted a promise from this beautiful goddess that she would help him and his men with magic and knowledge to return safely to their native land, Ithaca. 

Circe’s Promise measures 14½”/37cm from the clasp to the tip of the drop crystal, and each side rope measures 10”/25cm, producing a total length around the neck of 20”/50cm, however, the ropes can easily be lengthened to your preference. 

Skill Level: Intermediate to Advanced - this implies you have some working knowledge of beading techniques, and it would be very helpful, but not essential, to have some familiarity with Hubble stitch and all of its sub-techniques. Good, even thread tension is important. It will also be helpful if you are comfortable working with very small beads. 

Techniques: Hubble Stitch (Basic, HorSO, VerSO, Inverted and Intermittent Wave), Ladder stitch.
