This is one of my favorite tools! Great for Wire! "Knitting Spool"
It is grooved to rest on your thumb as you work. This is created from hard maple and made in the U.S.A. It runs $15.95 and this is one of the fun tools I carry on my Favorites Web Site.
I use Sterling Silver Caps to complete the chain and then add a Clasp.
Finding the right Clasp depends on the Pendant you want to add to your chain. Of course, you can also wear the chain without adornment.
