I used to knit mail. A *lot* of mail. I'd highly recommend that you NOT make a sporran out of mail, as it will literally eat your kilt.

Chain is abrasive. If you do some looking around in these forums, you'll find a number of people recommending that you not use a chain strap for your sporran except on infrequent formal occasions as the strap will abrade the kilt.

Now, if you did that with a full chain sporran, you'd accelerate/exacerbate the problem on a grand scale.
