Materials

This weave works best using rings with an aspect ratio around 6.4 (after springback). This works out to:

• 14 ga. (.080) x .512 (about 1/2) I.D.
• 16 ga. (.062) x .397 (about 3/8) I.D.
• 18 ga. (.045) x .288 (about 1/4) I.D.
• 20 ga. (.032) x .205 (about 3/16) I.D.
• 22 ga. (.025) x .160 (about 5/32) I.D.
• 24 ga. (.020) x .128 (about 1/8) I.D.

Instructions

For this instruction set, new rings are gold and existing rings are silver.

	1. Make a 2-4-2-4 chain.
	2. Move the center rings to the left and scrunch them together as shown.
	3. Add a ring through 6 existing rings.
	4. Add a ring through 6 existing rings (same as step 3, but on the opposite side).
	5. Add a 2-4 chain. Note that the 2 go through 4 existing rings.
	6. Move the center rings to the left and scrunch them together as shown (same as step 2).
	7. Add 2 rings (same as steps 3 and 4).
	8. Keep on repeating steps 5 through 7 until the chain is as long as required.

You're done!
