At this meetup, you’ll get an introduction to the most widely used chainmail pattern and learn the first steps to making a bracelet, or continue work on your own chainmail project with the instructor present.
Whether you’re gearing up to fight on the battlefield or having a night on the town, chainmail has provided a durable medium for adornment and protection for over a millennia.
Material and tools provided. All you have to do is bring yourself, your curiosity, and a friend!
Drew Whitehurst is four-year Burlington to W-S transplant and lifelong crafter and fidgeter. Drew got into making chainmail and LARP props in 2010 and never looked back.
Through the years Drew has sold pieces at fairs and markets, taken personal commissions and worked as official prop and set-builder for various LARPS and theater companies. Come learn stuff and make stuff with Drew at MIXXER!
