Extra Chunky Fibula Brooch in Aluminum

A simple, endless circle inspired by archeological finds.

• This penannular brooch is based on Pictish designs discovered in Aberdeenshire
• Cold-forged in lightweight aluminium
• A bigger, bolder version of my regular aluminium brooch for chunky knits
• Perfect extra bulky knits
• Lightweight enough that it will not weigh down the fabric of your scarf, or shawl
• Hammer-finished, the small facets giving the piece an ancient, earthy feel
• The circle portion of the pin is about 2 inches or 5cm in diameter
• Perfect for hand knit bulky scarves and cardigans

A version of this pin is featured in Staci Perry's Easy Knit Sweater Jacket Tutorial at Very Pink Knits. You can learn about the pattern (and get a how-to on how to fasten these brooches) here:
