FLAT WEAVE CHAIN MAIL BRACELET

Beatrice Barabas

Chain mail is an ancient art of weaving interlocking rings. Most flat weaves are descended from ancient armor patterns. Learn this basic Celtic pattern to create a lovely bracelet, one ring at a time. To produce this intricate, but understated look, connect jump rings of various sizes to build on a simple pattern. Both sterling silver and gold filled rings will be used to create added dimension. If you have Bent-nose and Flat-nose pliers, please bring them.
