Inlay Patterns
A little practiced art in chainmail making is the creation of inlay pictures using different coloured rings. Below is a selection of pictures for which I have made detailed, link by link, 'patterns'. I generally work with 6mm links as these give a good resolution providing more detail at smaller sizes. If you are interested in making your own inlays, I would be happy to create patterns from your designs for a labour fee of £20. I am also able to supply 6mm square section links in both natural (black) and silver at the cost of £3 per 1000. Please contact me at simon@novembergames.co.uk The patterns I create are standard European 4 in 1 and assume that you are familiar with the knitting process. For an excellent description of this process please visit Euro 4-1 Speedweaving Instructions An example pattern (the dancing pig) can be downloaded here. The patterns below can also be bought, though some I have already sold with exclusivity so am unable to resell. Prices:
