A nifty idea of combining maille and crochet, by making a maille chain (it looks a bit like Trizantine) and then crocheting over the edges to add more decoration to the piece.

Three-strand leather thonging bracelet with large-hole beads which go over more than one strand, and alternate as to which strands they go on. Kind of like a faux braid.

The original is not on Rebeca Mojica's site, but this bracelet was attributed to her. What I love about this is that the colours and shape give the impression of a rose, without actually looking like a rose under closer examination.

It hadn't occurred to me that the Ghenghiz Cohen weave (a sheet weave) could be used as a chain weave as well.

This bracelet is a cool design. It requires beads with four holes in them, but the beads could probably be replaced with normal jump rings or maybe decorative closed rings. It all depends on whether one could figure out the right sizes.

Chainmaille Bracelet Angel Byzantine by ChainmailleByBim on Etsy Three-sided Byzantine enclosed in larger rings. Cool.

Pretty wire-woven bracelet with beads peeking out like peas in a pod.

Beads strung on stiff wire, and then wrapped with wire in a spiral along the whole thing. Lovely. (original listing gone)

Cool idea: spell out a word in Morse Code with long and short beads. Adds a (hidden) meaning to the work.

This looks something like E4 on the bias, with different sizes of rings, with black glass rings sandwiched in between the silver rings, and black beads on the edges. (original listing gone)

A very creative design, with its asymmetry.

Weaves used; Byzantine chain, Jap Hex, and Denser Byzantine Sheet. And shiny Haematite beads. Very pretty.

A fun idea, to make crocheted 'daisies' for making daisy chains

Tutorial for components of a bracelet inspired by a china tea set. Quite interesting.

Japanese 8-in-2 with beads strung on tiger-tail; bicone beads make it easier to provide a place for the links to go over.

Helm Chain with gears in place of some of the rings. Very cool.

Wire-wrapped copper necklace and bracelet. Thinner wire and beads are wrapped around thicker wire. What I like about this is the way the wire twists and turns, not all going in the same direction. (Russian site)

Bracelet with an interesting use of glass rings and beads. Looks to be woven on the bias, possibly E4 on the bias. The glass rings are reinforced with metal rings alongside them. (could not find original page)

Delicate alternating pattern.
