More of the same

When doing any crafty type project you get to the point where you seem you just keep doing the same thing.  Sure you are making progress, your project is growing, becoming more complete.  But it feels like you are just doing the same motion, the same task over and over and over again. 

This is the stage which I have reached on the coif project. 

Cutting more rings, opening rings, closing rings.  Making more 4-in-1's, more strings, attaching strings,

I have added another two strings of 4-in-1's onto the end of the coif.  I would say that it is not about shoulder length. 

 
More strings of 4-in-1's
Attaching strings
 1st new row
2nd new row
 
 
While working on the additional rows the other day, I looked across the chain maille, and though to myself "chain maille is pretty".  And it sort of is in an odd way.  Maybe this is my clue that I have been working on this too long.  What do you think?
