A clever little bee over at Flossbox has taken some beautiful photos of different kinds of embroidery stitching. How lovely! I can’t wait to get into some embroidery and try these out.

DIY Chainmail Necklace

You’ll need:

  • 2 pairs of flat nose pliers
  • 350 brass or silver 8mm jump rings (for a 26″ necklace)
Guidelines:

  1. Start by separating the jump rings into two halves: 175 open and 175 closed.
  2. Thread three closed jump rings onto an open jump ring. Close the ring. Spread the three rings apart, with the rings looking exactly as shown below. The bottom ring will be the end of the necklace and the top two rings, which are spread open over the middle ring, will be where the chain mail begins.
  3. Keeping the rings in place with your forefinger and thumb, take an open jump ring and hook it through the front side of the two rings.
  4. Add 2 closed rings to the open ring and close.
  5. Spread the two rings apart in the same way as the first set of rings. Take another open jump ring and hook it through the front side of the top two closed rings.
  6. Add 2 closed rings and close. Continue the same steps until you’ve reached the desired length.
  7. To add an optional fourth row, lay the necklace flat and hook an open ring through first and second closed rings on the right side. Close the ring. Add another open ring through the second and third ring. Close. Add another through the third and fourth ring and so on. Can you notice a pattern forming?
  8. I stopped at 4 rows but you can continue adding rows for a more bib-like necklace.
  9. Connect the two ends with a single jump ring or clasp.

Fini!
