I got a package in the mail the other day that I had to post about. It came from Carol from
Beaded-Baubles. It contained a gorgeous set of chain maille jewelry. I had given her free reign with what I wanted and told her that I wanted something more delicate, but that I could wear every day. She came up with this, which is a weave developed by a group of maillers, called GSG which stands for Great Southern Gathering, or so I'm told.

The bracelet is a little tarnished, but that's because I haven't taken it off since I got it about a week ago! Since I wasn't able to get the whole necklace in the picture here is a close up. Check out the toggle clasp on this baby!

I'm just so happy with the whole set! I adore chain maille, but there is no way that I would be able to accomplish something like this, or even come close. My last attempt at anything chain maille-ish turned into a huge knot of rings. But this? I don't know how Carol does it!
