Description

This is a modification of Elfweave, in which the edges are reinforced by a 2-in-1 chain woven through the V rings in a way that is similar to the edge rings of Vipera Berus. This makes it completely stable and also looks good.

The AR is quite sensitive at the low end. The optimum seems to be AR 4.4 (19SWG, 11/64". At AR 4.1 it is weavable but very stiff. I think this is the practical minimum. At AR 4.7 (used in the weave reference picture) it is a bit looser but still good.

This is a link to some discussion of this modification.
