Me too.

With my scaled down version, which has turned into a pendant/necklace, I've tapered down to a one ring point. It does make a very neat, stable finish but I agree that the full width looks better on a cuff.
Sorry, no pictures as I haven't quite finished it yet.

If you do a really wide version of this weave (basically a necklace length) about three rows deep it makes quite a nice chain/choker - on it's own or you can have dangles from the large rings.

sounds fab, Lesley................can't wait to see the photos.

I thought about making a choker and earrings but never quite got that far................yet.

Ani, having wrestled with this problem for years, I finally discovered that using a longer tube clasp with some extra rings works brilliantly - like this:



It means none of the rings can flop over. The alternative is to taper the weave down to a one ring point and use a regular clasp, but you do loose some of the impact of the wide cuff that way.

That look much better than using the 3 strand clasp, and definitely gives it a wow factor.

Looks really good, and must have been really satisfying

Tip to spammers - it might help if you were a little cleverer about it.

And it's never a good idea to be slightly patronising if you're trying to get people to click through to your nautical themed jewellery sites.

(grrr..... another site I use has recently become overloaded with spam and my tolerance for it has gone waaaaaaay down.)
