My jump rings arrived yesterday! I promptly dived into the first of the three projects I got rings for - a Byzantine weave copper necklace. It's the same weave as my anklet from a couple weeks ago, but this time since the ring size is correct, what the weave was designed for, it's much tighter and more stable and looks much better!

So I've decided to follow joyfulfeather's lead and start making chain mail jewelry. In order to play around with it and see if I enjoyed it enough, I picked up some cheap jump rings at Michael's, a couple pairs of pliers at Joann's, and played around a little with the Byzantine pattern from the chain mail book joyfulfeather loaned me for the weekend.
