Chain Necklaces & Chainmaille Necklaces

Chain Necklaces and Chainmaille Necklaces Beading PatternsThere’s a wide variety of chain necklace styles, from a simple chain necklace with a charm or pendant to multi-strand beaded necklaces and layered beaded necklaces that incorporate chain as an integral part of the design.  There is also chainmaille (also commonly spelled as chain maille, chainmail, and chain mail), which is essentially a method of making a handmade chain by linking jump rings together in interlocking patterns (or weaves) forming integrate and complex designs.

Please note that, in this category, we do not include pendant necklace designs that have a closed jump ring (enabling it to be hung from either a thin chain or bead string necklace).  If you want to learn how to make a beaded pendant that is hung from a chain, see our Pendant Necklaces and Charm Necklaces section.

Remember, all of our necklace beading patterns will hold your hand every step of the way, ensuring you’ll have fun and will be successful with your handmade necklace - we guarantee it! Thank you for shopping Simple Bead Patterns and, as always, bead happy!
