Jewelry-making success
Oh wow. I had time to run to the bead store, and that necklace I was going to make out of hex nuts came out SO nicely. I'm extremely pleased! I feel a little bad now for not buying the expensive book in which the pattern was published, but it was just too easy to memorize... and I didn't like the other patterns enough to bother with them.
Apologies for the blurriness -- I did have the camera in closeup mode, but moved the camera too close. I hope this still makes it clear how this is made... it's just hex nuts and 2mm crimp beads on a length of nylon-coated steel wire. I modified this only slightly from Hannah Rogge's original design, allowing 1 1/4" between the hex nuts instead of 1".
Here you can see how nicely it hangs, though it doesn't exactly match my workout top. :) I just love this... it's so industrial and still manages to be light and airy looking.
