    Hi Karen, the classic metal weaving book, as others have mentioned is
    Textile Techniques in Metal. For chain making I mostly have used
    knitting. Some other textile techniques that I have tried in wire
    are too stiff to make a good chain. Arline Fisch has a newer book out
    titled Crocheted Wire Jewelry. It also covers some other textile
    techniques. Some of the crochet techniques described in the book are
    actually knit structures. I noticed that there are now some books
    out on knitting wire, and might be worth checking out. Best of luck! 

Jeanie
