From Brenda:

Here’s a fun element with a bushel full of visual impact and options! I call it Hobble as a playful nod to my new (healing) gait; and swing it does with its feature loops and jump rings. Of course, flipping a second link can “fill itself in” to form an even capsule form, but a single hung vertically is also cute in double-dangle form to try your hand at balancing mobile-style. Finally, add a bail or two or not depending on how you want to connect this uber-versatile link-pendant and go to town!
