I fell in love with the idea of using split rings on cast-on bonnets and so while exploring this, came across one way to add the rings (or beads) to CSM stitches.
Method one: hanging beads or split rings on your work/cast on bonnet. I’m working on a setup/cast-on bonnet utilizing jump rings. *I’ve since designed a easier method to do both a picot edge and Split Ring application.
Note: When using split rings you need to use rings that won’t overlap each other when on the cylinder so try for rings less than 7mm. I’ve found 6mm work well.
Method shown also applies to hanging beads. :) *Because we should work together to enhance this craft, learning and sharing*
I later created an EVEN EASIER way to add a picot/split ring to the machine. Here is a VIDEO of the BETTER.
