Now, let’s weave beautiful texture and patterns onto your spiral cat body wire frame.
For the first weave part, coil the remaining 24-gauge gold copper wire about one-quarter on the left cat body frame (fig. 5a, 5b, 5c).

For the second weave part, make one big coil by pulling the 24-gauge gold copper wire across the gap and wrap over the spiral wire (fig. 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d).
Then, make 3 small coils on the left cat body frame (fig. 6e).
Repeat this weaving combo until you cover two-quarters of the left cat body frame (fig. 6f, 6g, 6h, 6i).

For the third weave part, let’s weave the cat’s tail frame.
Pull the remaining 24-gauge gold copper wire to the cat tail frame, and wrap 2 small coils on the bottom spiral wire (fig. 7a, 7b, 7c).
Then, alternate the weaving combo of 2 small coils and 1 big coil until you reach the bottom midpoint of the spiral wire (fig. 7d, 7e).
After that, coil the gold copper wire along the left side of the pointed cat tail frame (fig. 7f).
Step 8 of 13
Elevate the look of your cat tail frame with beads.
Slip in one golden spacer bead, then make 3 small coils with a new 22-gauge copper wire (fig. 8a, 8b, 8c).
After that, slip in one small top drilled teardrop stone onto the 24-gauge gold copper wire (fig. 8d, 8e, 8f).
Loop the gold copper wire through the golden spacer bead, and wrap the remaining wire onto the cat tail frame (fig. 8g, 8h, 8i).
