As the end of the year nears, the blog will be winding down as well. A gentle reminder The Alchemists Vessel will be closed for the Christmas and New Year Holidays.
If you read Monday's blog post, you saw the sample of the Large size Dragonscale Bracelet I have been working on. I love this weave, beautiful and deceptive in its intricacy, once you have the basic pattern down it is a fairly simple and very fun weave.
I thought I would show off the finished product. This is mine, I made it for me.
Dragonscale in Aluminum, silver, aqua and purple rings. Although made from aluminum, this piece does have some weight, about 188 to 200 rings complete the piece.
Finished with a bar clasp that came with the rings, in a just smidge too short size, it still works wonderfully.
Surprising supple for its interlocking pattern, it feels absolutely amazing when worn. Smooth and silky, it slithers across the skin, sensual and serpentine. Strong, sturdy and a sensational conversation starter, perfect for a subtle pop of color at the office, or to brighten up that favorite pair of jeans, date night, girls day out, this will go with everything in your closet! Fits any fashion style, Rocker, Goth, Biker, Steam-punk, Hipster; and as an added bonus girly-girls can have them made in pink! Bracelets will be available in pre-made color combinations or custom colors of the customer's choice. These take a while to weave, unless a pre-made piece is selected expect at least a week turn around time, to create, package and ship your bracelet to you.
Slinky, shiny, stunning and mine!

The Chart below shows three color combinations, "Samug", "Keir's Dragon" and "Sample", the sample is the palette for the bracelet shown above. Keir's Dragon also has a pattern incorporated into it, the colors represent the smaller colored rings only.
Each line of color represents two or three jump rings as they are placed in the weave. Reading the scheme for "Smaug" we see, two gold rings, three orange rings, two yellow rings, and three Red rings, the pattern skips and changes colors around for a different sequence every two rows.
