Am I ready for tomorrow's event at the Landmark centre in Deal? Absolutely not!
Will I be panicking today? Absolutely not!
Will I pick up my pliers at least three times today? Definitely!!
For this bracelet I used 16swg 3/16" for the knots and 18swg 5/16" for the joining rings. The earrings are 18swg 5/32" for the knot and 18swg 3/16".
I would class it as a beginner weave and if you mirror the units, it stops the bracelet from twisting.
*If you're thinking it's actually Thursday, no it isn't and I definitely didn't forget to post yesterday*
It's weave Wednesday and this week's weave is a favourite of mine, Four Winds. The knots are best made with an A.R. closest to 3.1 but the joining rings can be a bit more flexible.
I have been busy weaving all morning for an upcoming event and my wrists and forearms are definitely telling me it's time for a break. Thankfully I saved this post a long time ago and it has helped me so much! This is your sign to stop, relax your shoulders and s...t...r...e...t...c...h.
Pre-orders are now open! Pre-orders are a great way to get larger quantities or items we don’t usually stock, plus it cuts out the risk of FOMO when the supplies hit the website. Drop Karen an email at contact@wraithmaille.co.uk to set yours up today. Pre-order cut off is Friday evening.
I've listed the sizes I've used here, personally I love the daintiness of the 20awg Abhainn, but the pastel pink and silver of the Aragon is equally as pretty.
Aragon is a really lovely weave and although it looks a little daunting at first, it comes together great once you get started - and you only need two sizes! It's the sheet version of Abhainn, so uses the same sizes.
I'll be working my way through alphabetically and to start with a bang, today's Weave Wednesday is a double whammy.
You said you wanted to see more tutorials and inspiration, so may I introduce to you...Weave Wednesday! Each week I'll be focusing on a different weave, giving ring sizes, links to tutorials (or a tutorial right here), conveniently in one post for you to save.
I've got a very different office goblin today, the cat has been replaced by Mini Maille! 🤣🤣🤣
Pre-orders have been going out over the last week and we hope to have the website updated by next week 😀
It's ok, he's pointed out it's the week after so I might see him 🤣

Mr Maille has set a goal of making himself a new tie for a local chamber of commerce meeting next week. I don't think I'll be seeing much of him in the evenings.

Doesn't it look great in the sun?!

Confucius once said, "Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life."
Well, I beg to differ 🤣
The 'ber' months are starting and today is a mix of heavy rain, then sun, then back to rain - perfect time to hide away and craft.
Waking up to feedback like this has made sure I've got that Friday feeling!
I hate to be the one to say it, but have you got your holiday making planned out yet?

Pre-orders close on the 3rd of September.
I'm sure this won't come as a shock to many of you but we wanted to explore all our options before making a decision, it just seems that our hands are tied with this one.
Wow, you guys are loving the scales this month! We've already sold out of many of the larger size packs 😱. But don't worry, pre-orders will open again on the 25th in time for the Christmas rush. So put the date in your diary and make sure you are signed up to our mailing list so you don't miss out.
It's a nice little build that one
