Is this redundant?

This is the Byzantine weave. How cool is that??? My biggest problem is with my eyes, being able to see if the rings are actually closed. But this is practice and learning, so I'm not very concerned. Aluminum rings, I wasn't going to buy Sterling silver to learn with, but I am finding this very interesting. I really want to learn how to incorporate beads but I'm in no hurry.









Fun!

For Bev & Pearl

I needed something to keep me busy that would actually interest me and I had decided to try chain maille jewelry. Both Bev and Pearl are quite good at it and I have said over and over - that's too hard! I'm not going to try that. But I tried it. I picked the easiest weave I could find for my first attempt and I made myself a bracelet!






Thank you everyone for being the best bloggy friends out there. I appreciate all the support, it does help!
