*Hi,
A Happy New Year to you all.
I'm new to this forum and also new to chain maille.. but I love it.
I'm trying my hand at the Sweetpea weave, but have only managed to get just 2 units completed in about 2 days!
I'm using 18g (1mm)* copper jump rings with an ID of 4.0. Researching around, I've found that the Sweetpea weave should work with an AR of between 4.0 and 4.2.
I have small hands but am having real problems bunching up the next 5 rings to create the 'eye', so that I can insert an open ring into it.*
Does anyone know any tricks/techniques to perfecting this weave.
I'm following instructions from the Maille Artisans site.
Many thanks,
Vi
