Knitted Glass!

I never would have thought of this, but if you know anything about wax casting it makes perfect sense...






Apparently you knit strings of wax, create your mold, melt out the wax and then fill the mold with melted glass. Brilliant!

There's an artist who's pretty well known for her work in this arena, her name is Carol Milne. Here's her PDF on her process.

Proof once more that the world is full of amazing things and amazingly talented people!
