In this tutorial, new rings are green, old are red. This may seem like an easy weave but I'm sure someone could get use out of it.

You need 2 sizes, one must fit inside the other (just like dragonscale). These rings have AR's of about 7 and 5. Preclose the small rings.

1. Hook a small ring onto a large one and close it.

2. Make another of these units and lay it on top of the first as shown.

3. Hook a small ring onto a large one, and then put the large ring through the first small ring as shown, trapping the second large ring.

4. Continue as needed. Colors changed for coolness.
