persian chain templates

I came very close to making nothing at all yesterday. Well, strictly speaking, I did make nothing on the calendar day. But I woke up in the middle of the night, and figured out how to get a couple of persian chain templates started, easier than when I tried and tried to get the pink chain begun. Then I went back to sleep. Since it wasn't Monday morning yet, I'm counting it.

Then when it was a sunny Monday, I did two more little lengths of persian with smaller rings. I photographed the process for the tutorial below. So I made not only a set of chain templates for the toolbox, but an educational blog post too!
