Sterling Silver Roundmaille Bracelet
"I've never made this weave in a thinner gauge but we do work in 22ga. The length is not an issue I can make this piece in any length you want. The 22 ga would be dainty, I would use 2.5 mm rings, I think it would be lovely. I can do a bracelet…"

"Correction the 20ga is in stock at one of our local galleries we sell in, I would just have to go down the street to get it.

"Jacki,
Yes you add one link at a time. So weaves however you can used closed rings as well. So you may close an open ring on multiple closed rings so it speeds things up. No matter what though you touch all the rings at least once."
Jacki Bilsborrow replied to Andrew Kitchen's discussion Hello from the Handmade Artists' Shop
"Andrew, I have a question for you. Do you add each one of those links by hand when you make chainmaille? I have always wondered about that. Chainmaille is fasinating to me.
