6.) Joining Units
After you have made enough basic unit to make a row (depends upon the project), you will need to connect basic units together (as shown).
Next, join rows together to make sheets.
That's it. If you've done all this, you can make chainmaille!
The European four-in-one maille style is the most basic design for chainmail projects and is by far the easiest, and quickest technique to use, as well as the lightest to wear. As such, The Pattern Library will give detailed instruction on the construction of pieces of maille, primarily based on this style. For more complicated, dense, and ornate styles go to the next few sections.
