      Jewelry designer Andersen's beginner-friendly collection of chain mail jewelry projects uses a single size jump ring--the common 3/16" (4.75 mm) in enamel-coated copper--to create an array of bracelets, earrings, and necklaces. The introductory designs focus on simple, symmetrical weaves that emphasize opening and closing jump rings (a necessary skill for chain mail), and later projects demonstrate traditional weaves such as box chain, Byzantine, "European 4-in-1," and barrel weave. Andersen also incorporates beads and scales for added interest. Most of the projects are quick and unintimidating, and the author provides an overview of supplies, techniques, and basic wirework to produce custom findings. VERDICT Andersen's colorful projects make the ancient art of chain mail both refreshingly modern and approachable.
