This beaded ladder chain maille pattern is a version of European 4-in-1 chain maille. The earrings are quick and easy to make. I have used the color Matte Black AB which is a very funny name for such colorful beads. I love their color transitions. These earrings are a great way to experiment with the different colors you like.
