Posted by Kathryn Vanderwiel on Jul 3rd 2017
I purchased this bracelet kit because I fell in love with the beautiful design and thought it would be awesome to wear it this to a party I was going to on July 1st. I got this idea only a week before the party, ordered the kit and I received the kit on the 29th of June. I was a little nervous about being able to make this bracelet in time, as it was labeled Intermediate, and I haven't tried chain maille weaving before. Now being this was my first try at weaving chain maille and setting a deadline for a party that was in less than 48 hours I had my work cut out for me. I started the bracelet and thought no problem I can do this. Then came the part where you have to 'weave' the one little jump ring through the rest of them. Not knowing what I was doing made this interesting but, I figured out how to hold the pieces and 'weave' that little guy home. I did have a little scare when one of the jump rings broke but, it turned out I didn't need the bracelet to be it's full length of 8 1/2in, so I had a few extras. I would recommend this kit for EVERYONE, and Yes even you the BEGINNER also. If I can make this bracelet in one day and have it ready for the party, just think how easy it would be if you gave yourself a few more days to learn it. This bracelet was fun to make and it has opened a whole new world to me. Thank You Weave Got Maille for having these kits with instructions any beginner can understand, every jump ring color sorted and labeled, and the mat to work on. Thanks again,
Kat
