Elfsheet
(from CGMaille)
Article © MAIL User: Phong

This tutorial is for adding rows to Elfsheet one at a time. This can be easier than adding entire Elfweave chains, especially if you're using a tight AR. I'm assuming that you're starting with a strip of Elfweave and want to add on to it. If you don't have a patch handy, you can use this same method starting off a piece of Half Persian 3 Sheet 6 in 1, or European 4 in 1 with a 45° seam. Elfsheet can be made with rings around AR of 4.2 and up. Bumping up the inner diameter will make it easier to weave.

Step 1: Connect a ring through two bottom two edge rings.
