Chainmaille

Chainmaille (or chainmail) is the craft and hobby of hand-weaving small metal rings into interlocking patterns, historically used to make protective armor and today used to create jewelry, sculptures, costumes, and reenactment gear. Hobbyists use pliers and specialized ring sizes/gauges to build classic weaves like European 4-in-1 or Byzantine, appealing to people who enjoy meticulous, repetitive handcraft and geometric pattern-making.
