Chain maille

I have at last mastered chain maille! With a little help from my friends at Uk Beaders and the two following links:

I can now do:

Shaggy Loops

Byzantine Weave

Helm weave

All very straight forward....see the pictures in the last post...but all very exciting! Chain maille is an art form I have struggled to master due to my AWFUL spacial difficulties! But now it seems to have clicked! I am very excited that I have lots of rings and 6 weeks off to play! Expect many photos to come!!

Next on my list....Rhino's snorting....just for the name!! :)
