Does tiger tail wire keep its shape when bent ( for wire wrapping and general wire jewelry)?

Can tiger tail wire be used for wire wrapping and bending, or is meant for stringing necklaces? I’m not sure what wire is best for wire jewelry.

Tiger Tail wire is meant only for stringing beads. While it will hold a knot, it’s too flexible for wire wrapping. Better to use actual wire, either sterling or gold fill for wrapping or linking elements. There are books and magazines available at most craft stores and they’re aimed at beginner to intermediate skill levels. Most will also recommend the stiffness to accomplish the finished piece.
