Chainmaille 110: Round



Chainmaille 110:Round



Cost: $25 plus Materials

Length of Class: 2 Hours



Chainmaille AR: 
      Tight: 3.00
       Best:
       Loose: 4.1

Rings that Work:
Michaels 7mm Jump Rings
Ring Lord 18g 3/16", 16g 1/4"



Class Description:

As the name implies, the weave produces a finished piece that is more round in shape over say a box chain and byzantine piece. The base of this pattern is a European 4 in 1 that has been turned into a tube and joined, but rather than do that we will be weaving it in the round.
