This tutorial shows how to make the Three Quarters Persian Base 6 Flower
Step 1 (Left photo)
Start with 12 closed rings (Purple) and 6 open rings (blue).
Step 2 (Right photo)
Create a 4n1 unit
Step 3 (Left photo)
Put 2 purple rings on an open blue ring.
Fold the 4n1 unit so 2 of the purple rings touch the side, and the 2 other purple rings flank the outside of the lower purple rings on the outside of the blue ring and float in the middle of the blue ring.
Step 4 (Center photo)
Split the 2 bottom purple rings, and slide the open blue ring (with 2 purple on it) through the split out one purple ring through the top 2 floating purple rings, then back around through the the other bottom purple ring.
Step 5 (Right photo)
Close the blue ring. The unit should look like this when complete.
Step 6 (left photo)
Continue to add rings to the weave like this until you use up all 18 rings up. It should look like this.
Step 7 (Center photo)
Open the end blue ring.
Step 8 (Right photo)
Flip the weave over
Step 9
Connect the open blue ring onto the 2 end purple rings to start to complete the loop.
Tip: if you are having difficulty connecting the next 2 rings try taking some thin binding wire and looping it through the blue rings forcing them into position, to create a more accessible opening for the purple rings to pass.
Step 10 (left photo)
Open one of the purple rings to the right of the last connected blue ring, and run it between the left 2 purple rings, and up through the left blue ring. Close the purple ring.
Step 11 (Right photo)
Open one of the purple rings to the right of the last connected blue ring, and run it between the left 2 purple rings, and up through the left blue ring. Close the purple ring.
The finished Three Quarters Persian Base 6 Flower will look like this
