This intermediate tutorial from best-selling chainmail author Dylon Whyte contains everything you need to know to weave, end, join and make jewelry pieces from the historical "Double Spiral" pattern. As well as information on suitable jump ring sizes and materials.

"Double Spiral" is a classic rope-like pattern, solid, yet flexible, which unlike most other single spiral chains, always keeps its spiral pattern, making this pattern uniquely suitable for many jewelry and decorative applications.

Kits include Bright Aluminum and Copper 18 gauge rings in the appropriate size for the tutorial. We chose these materials as they are easy to work with and experiment with and we chose to include 18 gauge rings in these kits as that seems to be the most logical place to start.


Dylon has certified this tutorial to work with our rings in the following sizes and materials:
