Woven Silver Chain
This is "spool-knit". One continuous strand of very thin sterling silver wire woven over nails stuck in a spool and threaded through the hole and out the bottom. You did that with a spool and yarn when you were a kid, right? Haha! This necklace was woven with 7 nails, so it's thick and substantial, it closes with an easy spring ring, and it measures about 22" long. If you have pendants with really big bails you could wear them on this, but it's fantastic as a stand-alone accessory, too! I make a similar chain woven with 4 nails--it's thinner and more delicate, but equally eye-catching!

Fairness?
I got this in an email today. I've seen it before, and it makes me shake my head because it's one of those things that you think should go without saying, but it's NOT what's actually happening. I would be in favor of this:
***Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution***
"Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the
United States that does not apply equally to all members of
Congress, Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall
make no law that applies to all members of Congress, Senators
and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens
of the United States."
