Box Chain

Box Chain is Byzantine with a step left out. While Byzantine's pattern is 2-2-2-Fold, Box Chain is 2-2-Fold. That little tweak completely changes the way the rings fit together, though, so Box Chain requires rings of a higher aspect ratio than Byzantine. We teach Box Chain as a variation of Byzantine, so you must already know Byzantine for our instructions to make sense.

These are the ring sizes we recommend for Box Chain. Multiply the rpi (rings per inch) figure by the number of inches of chain you want to make, then use the Rings pulldown at the top of the page to order them.
