I've finished another necklace!

Necklace, chainmaille Archimedes weave variant. I can't give a link to this weave, because it hasn't been approved yet.
Anodized Aluminium (dark blue, medium blue, sky blue) ID=4.76mm WD=1.2mm AR=3.97; Enamelled Copper (mint) ID=3.57mm WD=1.0mm AR=3.57; Enamelled Copper (mint) ID=3.97mm WD=1.0mm AR=3.97.

Earrings, chainmaille, Abstain weave. This weave is one that has been driving me bonkers, so I begged for someone on the M.A.I.L. forum to do a multi-coloured sample of it, and someone did, and that made it much clearer, so I could do it at last.
Anodized Aluminium (dark blue, medium blue, sky blue) ID=4.76mm WD=1.2mm AR=3.97. Plus one small Enamelled Copper mint link.

One of the things I've been working on - and being very frustrated by - during last month's NaArMaMo (

naarmamo) has been a chainmaille necklace using glass rings. Today I finished it!

A while back now, I was muttering about making a Hufflepuff necklace. I even started it. But, prompted by the current M.A.I.L. contest, I figured out an even better design. (Not sure what I'll do with the three inches of chain I did for the first one...)

And today I finished it!

Another chainmaille necklace! I finished it today. This is another symbolic one, though not fannish.

This one is a lanyard I made for my father for his birthday. Said birthday is only four days away now, and he made the request only about a week ago, so I've been working hard to finish it.

What he requested was a lanyard to hold his medic-alert-thing, which he is supposed to wear all the time, even in the shower. The original chain it had been on had broken, and he has temporarily replaced it with the kind of cloth lanyard one can buy at a stationers. But he doesn't want to wear the cloth in the shower, so he asked for a chain to replace it, that he wouldn't have to worry about getting wet.

This is it:

Full Persian 6-in-1 chain. Thick chain, very unlikely to break. Also, no fastener, so it won't break on the fastener either. Just drop it over the head.

Links: Brass (gold, black) ID=6.6mm, OD=9mm, WD=1.2mm, AR=5.5

I made a few pieces of chainmaille over the last couple of weeks, so here they are:

The first three were done on the long weekend, while I was at Continuum, which is why they are all rubber and silver rings of one size: that was all I had with me at the con. The last one was made last weekend, for Eldest Nephew for his birthday, since I'd been invited, on Saturday, to his birthday dinner on Sunday.
