My cat would say "to slay the Q-tips". She is poised on the corner of the bed just waiting.

Thanks. I made a maille necklace for one of my cats once. She ran off and hid in the basement. My then wife had to coax her out.

Not my work, but I have similar/ I have only used copper for trim.

Is it hard to do? Making Maille? I have a bunch of rings just can't find the time to try a make it.

Hot hard but extremely time consuming/. I start with 1/4 mile of electric fence wire/ Even with purchased split rings it would take for ever.

We taught a class at our local library. One older teenager stopped by and was fascinated in wanted to do every step. In about 1 1/2 hours, he made a three row bracelet and was delighted.

I did it long enough that one time I dropped a ring and caught it mid air with my needle nose pliers.

Can you post a close up photo of your work? I seem to learn better by seeing pictures than listening to instructions. My Dad said it was my left handedness. I think it is because of him, he learned by visual instruction as opposed to printed material of verbal instruction.

Dad was left handed too, as well as a lot of my siblings and 3 out of 4 of my children.

I will swap puters later and then post
