Rhinos Snorting Drano Posted 5 months ago

I just uploaded my new triumph of the funny name! It is just so exciting to me when I actually succeed learining a new chain maille pattern - some of them are so convoluted that I'm defeated before I start. But not this time!

The odball name is a mystery to me. This is really a delicate weave - not like a rhino at all, and certainly not like one who has been snorting Drano....would make one a tad violent I would think!

What really cracked me up was that once I got the pattern of how the rings go together (posted a detail photo, so you can see too) - I was just going merrily along - and then I looked at the directions - I had reversed them! How funny - kind of like for some reason I knit and crochet left-handed, even though I am right-handed. Things like that get turned around in my brain. What I do works, it's just not done the "correct" way. That made me laugh, but I finished the bracelet the way I started......and named it "Delicate Orbs"

Going to do earrings to match, and these I will attempt to do the 'right' way, just to see if they look any different, or are easier to do.

Little wacky humor for a Saturday....

I run into the same thing with names for synthetic fragrances. Would you buy a bar of soap scented with "Monkey Farts"? It's a tough sell, so I change the name on that one. Dragon's Blood can be the same way unless someone actually knows there's a resin called Dragon's Blood and likes it enough to buy the soap. Ain't it strange sometimes?
