I made another jelly cube! This time in rainbow colours! I feel like it turned out slightly stiffer than the previous one, possibly because this batch of green rings seem to be just a hair smaller than standard. Oh well, it’s still fun! Watch out for more!

One of the funnest things about wearing a cloak in public is the different reactions you get from people. It’s like a game! Are you gonna give me a double take? A suspicious side-eye? A carefully avoiding eye contact? Normal is boring, embrace your weird! 🤓

I haven’t really worn it enough to find out. :P But it doesn’t seem to have moved much when I did have it on. And I don’t know if those sizes are ideal exactly, I feel like it’s slightly loose as a weave. Gonna do some more research on recommended ring sizes before I make another.

Reminder to come check out the Creatures of the Night Market, Halloween edition, this weekend at the Cosmo Senior Centre in Saskatoon! I have pumpkins (of a sort)! 🎃👻💀

These are 16g 3/8 and 18g 1/4. The diamond shape was inspired by one I saw in a chainmail group on Facebook. I thought it was neat and wanted to give it a go!

That’s awesome! I’ve played with a couple test pieces before, but this one is my first complete piece of dragonscale. What size are the rings in that one?

I’m not sure if there was ever a specific inspiration, I just remember looking at various handflower designs online and thinking about what kinda fun I could have with them, and this idea just kinda jumped out at me. :P

Bearded Hobbit Creations @beardedhobbit.bsky.social · 6d

I think this might be one of the coolest things I’ve ever made! I had the idea for it ages back, but with the upcoming Halloween market it seemed like the perfect time to try to make my vision a reality! I’m so happy with how this turned out! 🕷️🕸️🎃

I’m going to experiment with different ring sizes to adjust how the weave sits though, and so I can play with different colours (my supply in these sizes is currently very limited). I’ve included some pics of it flexing/shifting to better show how it fits together.

Finished a new piece last night, this cuff in a weave called Dragonscale! It’s a very neat weave, though not exactly the quickest or easiest to make. I love how it turned out though, so I’ll need to do more.

I’m always open to making more so people can be properly represented. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

And I know that there are plenty more pride flags out there, but these are some of the most common/easiest to make using the rings I have.

9 different Pride Flag keychains! These items tend to be so popular that they’re hard to keep in stock. I plan to make more of each so that I’m not immediately out when someone buys one. :P

With that big order of rings recently, I’ve been able to finish up some of my WiPs, like this rainbow dice bag! The square wire rings have such a special, shiny look to them! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

This craft and culture fair specializes in the eclectic, weird, and this season in particular, the spooky! I’m really looking forward to it, and I hope to see you there! 🎃🦇💀

I have been slightly remiss in not mentioning yet that IT’S SPOOKY SEASON!!! One of our family’s favourite times of the year! With that in mind, join me next weekend at Creatures of the Night Market!

The Keychain Dragon comes in a wide variety of colour morphs, and skilled breeders can cross them for almost any colour combination! (I’m pretty sure some of my eggs contain pride-coloured dragons…)

Draconis clavicatenum, also known as the Common Keychain Dragon, is a playful and friendly species. Like most dragons they are avid collectors of shiny things, but unlike their larger cousins these little guys prefer hoarding keys over coins or gems.

I also like combining black and rainbow, it makes such a striking combo. That necklace looks awesome! 😊

Two more little dragons are being born! These two just need their scales added and they’ll be ready to go! These two blue and green one is pretty stiff, because the rings are just slightly smaller, but it’ll still work!

I also included some keychains, including Ukrainian and Canadian flags, to show unity between our countries.

Two chainmail keychains in the European 6-in-1 weave, coloured like the Ukrainian and Canadian flags.

A chainmail keychain in the Byzantine weave, with scales at the end, all in the colours of the Ukrainian Flag.

These pieces are not currently for sale (though I could remake them easily enough), they were donated to a fundraiser to help raise money to run a theatre camp for children in Ukraine. Hence the blue and yellow, for the Ukrainian flag. 💙💛
