When I was doing Persian chainmaille, I had a mantra going. Front to back, twist & through, close. Because it took me about 20 dismantlings to get the bracelet right, I'm sure I was saying it in my sleep.

I’m a bit daunted by chain mail, but I want to learn. I have a few guy friends who’d probably wear these.

I literally just finished making this, put it on, adjusted the rings to lay flat, slipped it off and a rubber ring snapped... I'll fix it when my fingers stop throbbing lol!

I'm not sure if someone put it here or not, but I just want to let everyone know, much like Yvonne thought might be the case, you don't actually need your units to be divisible by 3. I just finished making a bracelet with this weave and mine is 43 units of 18 gauge 3/16. I didn't really experience any issues, other than it was a new weave to me.

howdy,learning alot from your tutorials and I was wondering if you do arm bands like the ones in the fantasy movies...

@donnastevens8832 2 жыл бұрын

Wonder what it would look like with alternating black and white rubber rings for a kind of zebra effect. Also, can you explain how you would keep the rainbow colours correct if you had a shorter bracelet because, surely the rainbow is a seven colour repeat. And how does the divisible by three work in that case. I think that is the part I can’t get my head around … and the difficulty in seeing those black rings at times.

@SS-jb8wj 2 жыл бұрын

There are 42 bundles of the silver & rubber rings. & into that goes 6 times. I have trouble sometimes getting my head around chainmaille too.

Any tips on how "small" of a gauge/diameter you could do for the stretchy version? I'd like to make one that's a bit more dainty.

@transvalkyrie 2 жыл бұрын

Chainmail patterns are typically interchangeable based off the Aspect Ratio, or AR. A quick Google search brought up an AR conversion chart. In this case, a 16 gauge wire with an inner diameter of 1/4 has an AR of 3.9. Looking at the chart we see that a 20 gauge wire with an inner diameter of 1/8 has an AR of 3.7, and an inner diameter of 9/64 has an AR of 4.1. Since neither of these are a perfect match, yet are close enough to the AR 3.9 of the original pattern, they should still work. The 3.7 AR would just be a tighter weave while the 4.1 would allow more movement with the rings. There are patterns that don't offer any wiggle room on AR, but this one seems forgiving enough. Hope this helps!
