• Was the digital edition supposed to be a free (complete) preview of the craft magazine?

• I subscribe to both magazines and access to the Digital editions works perfectly, they are a great complement to the magazines. I just have to force myself not to read the whole magazine online before I get the print version because I know I'll enjoy it more in print :).

  I still haven't received the t-shirt that was offered with Craft though. When do those go out?

• Thanks Phil. I'm not in a huge rush to get it, I was just worried since I had my magazine in hand and no shirt that something went wrong and I missed mine.

• I used to make maille all the time, I even tried making a lorica plumata once... scale woven into chain.

  I wear this chainmail bracelet all the time- it's woven on.

• Oh, by the way, if anyone is interested in making chainmail/chainmail products. The links are much better if they are sawed and not cut with wire cutters. It just works better, fewer snags and a bunch of other things. If you make your own mail then wrap a high strength wire around a dowell and cut it with a dremel or something. That's what i did.

• If you want to experiment and try a load more patterns and weaves, check out http://www.mailleartisans.org/ as well.
