Further divide the remaining pendant bail 18-gauge wires into half, with 4 strings each (fig. 13a, 13b).
Then, pull the wires towards the front of your pendant (fig. 13c, 13d, 13e, 13f, 13g).

Step 14 of 29
Let’s practice our wire braiding technique.
Face the front of your pendant, and divide the wires on the right side into one-two-one strings (fig. 14a).
Take a 22-gauge gold copper wire and make six coils on the middle wires (fig. 14b, 14c).
Then, split the coiled wires into left and right directions (fig. 14d, 14e).
Next, bring the right most and left most 18-gauge wires together and make the second coil right under the first coil (fig. 14f, 14g, 14h, 14i, 14j, 14k, 14l, 14m).
After that, bring the split wires from the first coil together and make the third coil under the second coil (fig. 14n, 14o, 14p, 14q).
Checkpoint: This is how your wire braid should look (fig. 14r).
