Modified Soumak is one of my favorite wire weaving patterns, and I particularly love it when worked as a 2-base wire weave. I use this particular wire weave frequently in my designs, and so do a lot of other tutorial makers. So, I made this practical and popular weave a top priority for a new video tutorial.
There are lots of Door 44 Studios make-alongs coming this year, and several of them will feature this weave. And by creating this video just ahead of those make-alongs, you'll be sure to have all the tools you'll need to successfully complete your make-along projects.

Today, I'm going to show you how to work this pretty and functional wire weave pattern on just two base wires. Whether you're left-handed or right-handed, this video is for you because I demonstrate this weave both ways. It's a very common wire weaving pattern, and it's also a pattern that's easy to master. I'll have you weaving like a pro in no time. I promise!
