Gay, 23, I'm a small-time gardener in Cali, hobbies are reading, writing, chainmail, and other other, more nocturnal, activities . . . .
Ultimately it is now my bags keychain. I stitched it into a tube and inserted a brass core of persian into it.
The metrics on that would be, a 20g steel Euro 8-2 with an 18g brass full persian core.
Hopefully more to come soon as well.

This project punished me. I wanted a piece of kings mailled, which is a Euro 8-2 pattern. So I settled on 20g steel for that one, and ow.

Wasn't until about four months ago that the nerves in my hands stopped numbing at rest and screaming while I'm asleep every morning lol

Though the brass will darken the piece still looks awesome. The first pic is of a half persian, the second was a 14g steel byzantine. The other two are just full Persians.

And thus the knitting with steel.

Can't mention it in the bio and not show proof. More to come below ofc.
I usually prefer heavy materials like brass and steel, so I pref to combine them for the units strength.

Just some snapshots from earlier this spring, a few rounds of harvesting so far. Can't wait for the roses to come back soon.
