Some Weaves have the Darndest Names


Just like quilt blocks, many chainmaille weaves have several different weaves. This particular weave was originally given the name Rhinos Snorting Drano. I wonder what the weave inventor was snorting to come up with that? It is also known as Barrel Weave and Stairway to Heaven. If you double the circling rings, the weave becomes Double Visions. I like the openness of the weave, it looks good on a wrist.
