Japanese 12 in 2 - Shenandoah & Enso Chainmaille Tutorials
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
In this tutorial, I tackle the chainmaille weave known as japanese 12 in 2. This is a very versatile weave which you can have a lot of fun with. The sizes I like to use are:
14g for the big rings
18g 4.0mm ID
20g 2.75mm ID
Shenandoah pendant uses 14g 10mm and 6mm, the Shenandoah bracelet uses 14g 10mm, and Enso uses 14g 6mm ID & 8mm ID.
The wire I make rings with uses the AWG system (not SWG).

This is by far the clearest, and most understandable video I've seen of this weave. Thank you.
Great designs. It is easy to see and your instruction is easy to understand. You also make it fun to watch.
Thanks to one of your Stirling silver earring kits I have managed to make this beautiful pattern again with rings I got from TRL. Thank you so much! It is such a intricate weave and so pretty!!
Hi Amy, this is my first time watching one of your tutorial and I can say that I am very happy. It is amaizing the beautiful thing you can do with Jump rings. I love, love this bracelet, earings, pendant etc. tutorial. Thanks so much for sharing and for the good sense of humor.
Love this design thx for sharing! I'll have to try this!
Always awesome watching one of your tutorials! Funny, informative, and easily followed. I look forward to watching the rest.

Thank you Ellen!
Agree. She has a good personality and shows the details.
Tutorial grandioso, ottima spiegazione per un meraviglioso progetto! Grazie per la condivisione 😍
Thank you so much for your fab tutorial!! I have sooo many jump rings in all different sizes (I'm one of those diy jewelry fanatics who would rather buy beads and jewelry findings than food 😆 , & tho' I've been been making/designing my own jewelry for about 10 yrs., I've not yet tried maille, but I've been wanting to learn this technique for quite some time now -- you've inspired me to attempt my first go at it ☺ ( I *love* your Shenandoah pattern, and while I'd like to try a bracelet with that pattern I think I'd best start out with the pendant/earrings before I do a whole bracelet) Thanks again, off to check out your website and Chain Maille kits .....
this is really cool
Hi from a fellow Virginian! Great vid...thx.
Thank You!
ur so funnyyy! love the video
LOVE
Maru also means circle in Japanese. Not sure where I've seen it before, but I double checked :D
Hi Amy. What ID could you use for the big rings using a 16 gauge wire rather than 14 gauge
Holaaa 🙋!!!, Hermosos tus tutoriales. ¿Cómo se puede hacer un mandala de 18 cm, con ésta técnica??
Super 💝
Hello Amy! I'd like your tutorial, thanks for it. There are few tutorials in Russia, that's why I appreciate your work.

RiVaH!
where do you buy your materials?
The thickness of the rings that you mention is that AWG or SWG? I am trying to see if I can find supplies here in Sweden to make a bracelet and some sites only mention the thickness in mm so in order for me to find rings that work I have to be able to convert the sizes you use.

It's called a bead mat -- most bead stores sell them, they're great.

I actually use a simple thick felt sheet
Just curious, what are the inner diameters of the different sized rings? I am trying to make these for my special lady as I am into this sort of thing but I'm very confused, I think I got a bit mixed up.

So agree with you - hasn't anyone notice that she doesn't give the size of the jump rings!!!!!!! It's essential to chain maille.

are your double jump rings glued together?

No, nothing is glued.
You must have the patience of Job (Biblical figure)to do Chainmaille. Love it, but have not mastered the patience for it yet. I have taken 2 classes and not finished either project....Maybe someday. But I love the History
saying the smallest rings are 7.5 mm ID makes no sense. they would be almost as wide as the largest ring 10mm but they arent.

the smallest rings are 20g 2.75mm ID. I'm not sure where you got 7.5.
This is not helpful - every time you pick up a ring you are telling the size of the wire not the size of the jump ring - this is essential to chain maille. Something else that be of help to you is the rest of the world is measuring everything in - mm, cm, and metres!!!!!! So more confusion - I liked your work - but I think you might be putting people off this wonderful craft because of the arrogance that everything revolves around AMERICA - it does not. Please get in tune with the rest of us before it's too late. Much love to you and yours from England.

Izzy True I follow a couple of other chainmaillers and one uses both metric and imperial measurements, while the other uses imperial. I don't think it it arrogance to use the measurements you're used to. When I hear people using millimetres and centimetres with regard to wire gauges I have no idea what gauge they are talking about, but if they say they're using 20 gauge wire I know what thickness of wire I need.

Brissy Girl lovely video ,but I must agree mm and cm, inches are the preferred measurements for the uk and lots of other countries and would be nice to include this in the video or in additional information. I know you also do kits but not every body can afford the prices and extra for p&p. I would prefer buying myself from my local shopping center and great quality and price less than half of your prices. Lovely video and many thanks for the free lesson in chain mail kind regards I’m subscribed for more.

I'm (very) late in replying, but in my video description I give all the sizes needed, and they are in mm, as well as noting that wire used is in the American Wire Gauge system. I don't work in imperial / inches unless it's how long a chain is (7" bracelet, etc.) so I'm not sure where that is coming from. I state the size of the gauge of the ring, because there are basically only 3 ring sizes that I use for japanese 12-in-2: 20g 2.75mm ID (doubled) 18g 4.0mm ID (doubled) and then the large 14g rings, which the inner diameter varies depending on the piece. (single) So, when I say 'open one of your 20g rings' -- there is only 1 ring size that refers too. When something is firm in my own head and I speak of it casually, I forget that it is NOT a set thing in other's heads and I apologies for the confusion.
