    I’m going to try this as a bracelet. At 53:37 one of the stray cats jumped on the sill outside my window and then you baby meowed. I thought I was losing my mind because I’m wearing noise canceling headphones. It was funny. I had to share.

    I am new to chainmail, it’s been about 2 weeks. I am also new to weaving, I started about a month ago. I am absolutely in love with this craft, and I cannot thank you enough for your detailed tutorials, tons of extra tips, other resources you recommend and just your enthusiasm to teach! You are so knowledgeable and we are very lucky to have your help! Thanks! I’ll be watching all of your videos and recommending them to anyone I know who is interested in this art. I do plan on making this over the weekend. I’ll share the results with you

    Yvonne, you inspired me a couple of years ago to the point I was making my own jump rings. Gave that up because you mentioned Lord of the Rings. But I find it so difficult to make a pattern. It made me sad. But I'm back and going to see if I can do this. Thank you so much for the inspiration.

    I like the end results with your helm stitch. However, if I had never seen other videos of this stitch, I would have never tried it after watching how you made the pendant & the earring. That was very confusing for me & looked much more difficult than the 3rd method you demonstrated. Thank you for the tips on buying jump rings. That was very helpful.

    When I do this one, I do a 2-2-2 chain with the smaller rings in the middle then I put another set of small rings on the end, then going back to the first small set, I thread the orbital in between the large rings and around the small rings. Hopefully that makes sense

    Yvonne, I really like chainmaille but have some arthritis in my hands. I’m older than your typical viewer (not quite Cryptkeeper, lol). Can you rank the different ring materials so I can know what materials to try next? FYI, hello from Tampa.

    For the past week, I have been trying and doing ok. But I have slipped off the rings with the small pliers I have. I will be investing in larger head pliers to improve the grip on the jump rings.

    I watched a video a few years back of how you Yvonne molded the grip on your bent nose pliers and I will most likely do a similar application. I have wrist issues. So your sharing of many videos has been very helpful, thank you.
