nice tutorial
I love the shenandoah pendent was is the ratio difference between it and the bracelet or earrings in regards to ring size. or they all the same size.
Hi Marlyce, The same ring sizes are used for all three pieces — the bracelet doesn’t use the 14g 6.0mm ring, just the 14g 10mm rings throughout.
how nice!! I LOVED your tutorial!!
Thank you so much for your tutorial on the full Persian chain maille weave. I have tried so many times to find a video to help and yours is the first one to make sense.
I’m not that much of a internet reader to be honest but
your blogs really nice, keep it up! I’ll go ahead and bookmark your website to come back down the road.
Cheers
Thank you so much for your tutorials and blog! I’m permanently disabled, with the use of only my left hand. Thankfully my husband wants to learn all of my favorite (and new favs) Chain Maille patterns. Because of you he can! Your style of teaching makes it possible for him to learn. No one else teaches like you do! No one else teaches as clearly or as simply as you. Thank you so very much! Someday, if we figure out a way for me to once again create Chain Maille, I’ll be back at it, until then, my husband will be learning and creating thanks to you.
It’s hard to find educated people for this subject, however,
you seem like you know what you’re talking about!
Thanks
Wow, I just discovered you site. I’m a former teacher and am now retired. It’s a pleasure to see your style of teaching. You are outstanding.
Thank You,

Dear, I gotta problem-I cannot currently get videos to run on my computer at all. Do you have any regular step-by-step instructions for some of the chainmailles? It isn’t my computer at fault-it is the operator,I am sure. Anyway, thanks for the generous sharing, there is never enough of simple sharing, and it always does far more good than you will ever know. From an older jeweler, thank you.
I agree with some of the other comments that give you kudos for your teaching style. You are thorough, clear, complete, and entertaining. Thank you for producing quality tutorials. A question for you………..am I allowed to complete jewelry items from your tutorials for sale for local craft sales? I have no intention of selling your patterns as patterns or any of your tutorials, only finished products. (I am especially interested in your Shenandoah and Enso designs.) I am also not interested in hiring employees and mass producing your designs, rather enjoying what I can make myself. Thank you for considering my request. And once again, thank you for your chain maille tutorials…….they have been a big help as I learn!

Loved the tutorial for Byzantine Weave! Got so into it that I decided to make a necklace instead of a bracelet, using jump rings purchased from Raine Studio Supplies. Not quite sure how to download pic of necklace, otherwise would love to share finished piece!
