2. Unlay the four pairs of strands for a distance equivalent in length to fifteen

links of chain, and apply a strong whipping keeping the pairs crossed in

the center – it is with these crossed pairs that you commence your first tuck.

To help identify correctly, they will either both be plain, or they will both have a

black marker thread running through – it doesn’t matter which you use, as long as

you tuck matching pairs (both plain or both black).

3. Unlay each of these center pairs into

single strands and tuck them through

the first link of chain as shown – two

strands enter the link from below and

two from above

4. After first locking tucks, continue with

one pair of strands only,

keeping strands on top of the link in each

tuck for five alternating links.

 5.Turn the chain over and repeat

with the other pair of strands,

then tie off both pairs of strands.

6. Repeat as above with other pairs

of strands and tie off as shown.
