I started making maille objects after an accident in 2010, my hand was really messed up I had pins in my fingers and was in a cast for awhile and I used this to strengthen my grip. I had put it down for more years than I want to admit to.... I am really out of practice and honestly the tremors in both of my hands are a problem when trying to line up the rings and grasp them with the pliers... It was also easier for me to see the patterns then... but I pulled out all my rings, scales and pliers last night and after many attempts and frustrations over a few hours I made this... yes I now see there is a mistake in the middle but it is all good... I want to use this all up and not have it taunting me from the closet any more.... baby steps.
