Tutorial: Weaving Half Persian 4 in 1 - Fast & Easy
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 січ 2014
- Ring sizes: From the M.A.I.L. website, they recommend using rings with an AR of no less than 4.7 for this weave. I've used 18 gauge (SWG) 1/4" rings & 16g 5/16" rings. Both of those sizes have worked well for me. 16g 1/4" (AR of ~4.1) didn't work.
I could kiss you. It took me hours to learn this weave the first time. I promptly didn't use it for several months and forgot how to make it. Went back to learn it, and wasted 3 fruitless hours. Finally gave up on it until I couldn't avoid it any more... found your tutorial on a quick search, and had a piece in less than 5 minutes. Thank you so much! Consider yourself +1 fan.
I know it will take practice, but this is one of the best tutorials I've ever viewed for chainmaille weaving. I love the fact that you used the big rings as it makes it a lot easier to actually see what you're doing and the placement of the rings. I subscribed to your channel based on this tutorial.......
Excellent tutorial - I'm a total newbie and I got it within 5 minutes: very methodical, and GREAT to present it from the viewpoint of the student. Your weaving skills are outstanding - only excelled by your ability to pass you skills to others: well done!
BEST TUTORIAL EVER! You have been such a huge help - I was busy using instructions that a client paid for and downloaded to try and help her, as she just couldn't get it. I was getting nowhere. So I turned to the 'net, and found lots of other instructions that made no sense. But yours made the light dawn on me, and 15 mins later, I am doing it perfectly! Thanks so much. Now I can go and teach my client, too.
Literally the most underrated tutorial of all time, my man I am 15 and made a piece that can link my pauldrons together in an hour. You are an ANGEL
I realize this was posted 10 years ago but I just have to say yours is the clearest video on Persian 4 in 1 weave. I have watched A LOT of Persian 4 in 1 vids and well suffice to say yours is the clearest and easiest to follow. THANK YOU! It is a beautiful weave but not easy and I am very happy to have found this vid!
the first time i saw this tutorial, i was able to learn it without even knowing how to do a persian 3 in 1, i understood this one quickly, and then, later, after not being able to successfully understand other tutorials on the persian 3 in 1, i come back and using this, i was able to understand it- what i’m trying to say is that this is an amazing tutorial! stellar job!
This is WILD, so much clearer than anything I had tried. My friend and I were just joking that we thought this weave is impossible, and this tutorial made it clear! Thank you!!
Thank you for this tutorial. I realize you made it 9 years ago, however it's still helping creatives learn new things and I appreciate you for it
Get your chapstick handy, cause I could kiss you too. I’ve lost count how many other tutorials I’ve watched. I’ve unload chained so many times I’ve had to toss jump rings too marred up. Thank you for using those giant visuals, they really helped me understand exactly where the rings go.
Love the clarity of this instruction. Quick, matter of fact, direct and not dragged out. Well done!
Upon first watching this I was I was like “it’s so annoying that this guy sounds really sure that I will eventually get this weave after watching this video cause I am a total idiot”.
I racked my brain watching it months ago, couldn’t get it, and accepted failure. I came back watched it again and was like “hol up, I get it!” And it clicked. Of all the HP4 how to I’ve seen, this has the simplest, most straightforward approach-for me at least. Using the large rings to demo it was super helpful too! I can’t thank you enough man! 🖤⛓️
Best of the best. Skipped the struggle, made progress and now my necklace is halfway done. Highly recommended!
OMG! I finally understand how to do this weave! I have been struggling. Using the really big rings is genius - I’d love to see you do more tutorials because of that! Also - you’re LEFT-HANDED! It’s so hard sometimes to visually flip tutorials with complicated weaves so it’s a huge bonus for me to see this done by a fellow lefty. Please make more videos!!!
Thank you for pointing out that this was left handed. As a righty I couldn't understand why the rings wouldn't twist the way I wanted them to.
So glad I found your tutorial. So much easier to follow than others I have seen. Using the large rings was a tremendous help showing the viewer where the rings are placed rather than looking at someone's fingers. I hope to see more of your videos. Thanks so much.
This is by far the best tutorial I’ve ever seen on this chain pattern 👌 it was clear and concise and you made it easy to understand
Holy moly I've been struggling to learn this one for ages and tried so many tutorials but this broke it down so simply. Thank you.
You're the third tutorial video I've watched for this weave, and the ONLY one that made any fucking sense. Thank you, I truly cannot express my gratitude enough
Absolutely superior tutorial. Nailed this weave on my first attempt, thanks to your clear instructions! Doing a tutorial with giant rings is the best way to demo! Thank you!!
My Gods, I love you!!! I have spent more hours than I care to admit trying unsuccessfully with multiple tutorials to learn this weave, and you DID teach me within half an hour. I am amazed, and I take my hat off to you, sir!
I tried multiple tutorials for half persian 4 in 1 and this is the only one that clicked for me. Thank you!
Phenominal video, it allowed me to figure out the weave in 5 minutes. I’ve watched a few others and they fell short of giving a full understanding of how to make a solid 4 in 1
Brilliant tutorial! I was completely confused by this weave and could not figure it out. One viewing of your tutorial and I immediately got it. Once I got it started it was easy. Thanks!
Thank you for this. You made it so simple, and in about an hour I was in full swing. The demo with the large rings is awesome and it helped me to see the hook, when passing the ring though the other rings. Great Job!
Thank you so much for this video!!! It's the first time after, trying forever, that I've been able to make a HP4-1 chain. Your technique is terrific. I did have to watch several times because for me, you went through the actual weave step to quickly. Once I realized I had to got up then through two Not one rings it worked. I'm so happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really appreciate how you showed this using the larger rings for demonstration. You made a really good tutorial here, a nice logical progression. And I like the bracelet too! Thanks so much!
Looked at so many sites and videos and it did not make any sense to me. Watched yours a few times and it finally clicked. So easy once you get rolling! I can't believe I was having such a hard time. Your method works so great thanks!
This is the best tutorial I've seen on the Persian 4-1. You've taught me through this video and I am very thankful. The video quality is great and so are the instructions. I look forward to seeing other tutorials by you.
This is SO MUCH EASIER than the other tutorial I tried (and almost gave up on)... Thank you!!
THANK YOU!!!!! I made a length of this once but with help from someone far more skilled than myself to get it going! By far one of my favourite weaves!! I completely get it now and see how simple it is! THANK YOU!!!!
Thanks to your concise, well produced video I have just completed a bronze Half Persion 4 in1 for my son in law!
Many, Many thanks!
This is a beautiful weave! Thank you very much for the easy-to-follow tutorial! I can't wait for my pliers to arrive so I can get started!
Hi everyone, unfortunately I cannot take requests at this time. I do have plans for more tutorials, but they are currently taking a back seat to an electrician's apprenticeship that I was accepted into this summer. Hopefully things will slow down a bit this fall/winter. I'll post more videos as I can :)
+Matthew Perry What, you value your career and livelihood over teaching strangers how to do chainmaille over the internet? See how you are? Lol
Seriously, thank you for the excellent and helpful tutorial.
Thanks for the video, really appreciate it and will try the pattern out soon.
You're really good in Ally McBeal.
@@KaiserGuy1992 Happy New Year!
@@multitutorialguy5735 Happy New Year as well man.
Thank you for showing this weave using the large rings. That really helped in understanding since the larger rings are so easy to see. Great instructions!!
Wow! I haven’t checked this video in months, and I am just stunned at the wonderful responses people have left. I’m thrilled that you have found this so helpful, and thank you for the great comments. It really means a lot to me. I am in the process of moving, but once I’m settled I now have plans to make some more videos :)
Matthew Perry very helpful tutorial, this is the easiest way to make this weave. Finally i did it! Now, i'm having problems with dragonscale and full persian. Could you do a tutorial, please? :)
Lo
Using the large rings did it for me!! Thank you for a great tutorial!! 👍👍
Spent an hour last night making no progress on this pattern (from a book) - In 5:36 this afternoon, from your tutorial, I'VE GOT IT !!! thanks much.
You're my hero! Your tutorial unlocked the mystery of HP 4-1 :). Thanks!
I watched this twice and followed along with my own rings and im flying through now! thanks!
Thanks so much, I was having so much trouble trying to learn this weave! This is by far the easiest tutorial on the internet! Keep making tutorials, I love it!
Good to hear! I currently have a few more tutorials in the works, and one is for some colorful key chains, made from 4-1 box weave. Check back in a couple weeks! :)
Matthew Perry
Can you make a tutorial on how to join the ends of this weave?
Thanks man. I've wanted to learn this weave for years and your awesome, simple tutorial got me there.
Honestly, the plus sized rings was amazing for being able to visualize it. Finally close to finishing my first (excessively ambitious) scale mail project, and looking forward to trying this next.
this made 4-in-1 so easy...! I just couldn't. figure. it. OUT. when I was tryna learn from a book. ty!
You bet! I'm happy it helped you to craft the things!
I am a brand new weaver and have only done a couple simple projects (Earrings, basic 4n1, and a byzantine chain)...
I have to say, you have done a fine job explaining the process and I really like what you did with the extra large rings for display purposes.
I am definitely subscribing and look forward to my next project now more than ever.
Thanks!!
this way looks so much easier then some of the other videos I've watched. I cant wait to try it!!
This looks simple. I will try it when I get home. Everything else I have seen have you too make a template and makes it look hard too make.... thank you Larry Dallas
Pretty ingenious way to teach the technique. You make it look easier than I thought. Great job!
Thanks!
I wish other chainmaille tutorials would use nice big rings like you did. It makes it so much easier to see.
Well done. Looking forward to more tutorials from you.
LOL. Now I know how left handers feel looking at all the right handers tutorials. Thanks for this. : )
Thank you so much for this tutorial - I was finally able to work out this weave - have been wanting to get it for ages, and now I have :)
Thank you for this tutorial. It has made learning this weave a lot easier.
WOW! This is great! One of my hang-ups is that I open rings left-handed, opposite of the tutorial. I thought it through and turned everything around and voila! I love this chain. The big rings in the video are really helpful. Give us more, please!
Hi Matthew, Thankyou for your awesome tutorial. I've tried watching others videos on this weave and have not been able to grasp it. Watching your video I was able to learn this weave in 10 mins. Thankyou so much.
Thank you so much! The bit near the beginning with the giant rings was exactly what I needed to finally figure this weave out!
Fantastic tutorial! You have made it look easy to do, so I am eager to have a go! Thankyou x
I watched this like ten times and now I'm doing it really easily
Great video
Absolutely amazing on how you showed this. U are a smart great teacher
I wasn't having luck with this until I realised my rings were opened the other way. Makes all the difference trying to get through the two rings. Now it's easy.
Best tutorial ever! I hope you can make more like this for different types. Thank you friend.
Excellent video! Thank you so much for taking the time in making this.
Great tutorial!
Took me a couple trys to figure out the first few rings, now I've got a chain a foot long. Thanks for sharing your technique.
THANK YOU !!! the 4th tutorial in line ....and i finally got it !!!! yay
Much appreciated! Awesome video! I am new to chainmaille so I am happy I did not get frustrated, and give up before I started.
I found this so easy to follow, it's a very effective tutorial. Thank you :D
Immediate reaction -- Bloody hell! That's simple!!!! Thank you SO much, Matt!!
Heck yeah! Right on :D
great tutorial and easy to understand. I look forward to trying this, as before I was afraid to try.. thank you
Best tutorial from all. Thanks for sharing. Regards from Rio de Janeiro.
You are my HERO right now!
Thanks for the tutorial. Is really awesome and finally I learned how to make it after a long time. I really appreciate your video and your help.!!!!
Thank-you so much - I've seen these bracelets before but couldn't afford them - I made one out of copper jump rings I made for less than $1. The kindness of people teaching other people for no cost, and the creativity of people amaze me.
He is getting paid for making these videos.
Excellent tutorial - Thanks so much!!
Thanks a lot man. I learned this weave years ago...then I forgot how to start it. Every tutorial I found might as well have been in Ancient Greek, for all the sense they made, lol.
I would love to see other styles that you do. You are very easy to understand and follow. Thank you :)
Wow, it looks simple, can't wait to try, i've been struggling with this one!
Great tutorial! Learned to do this in minutes! Thanks!
I was looking for something to make that wasnot a paricord bracelet. My brother had surgery two weeks ago and needs a project to keep him busy. Thanks again I love it.
Great video! Definitely the only video needed to learn this weave.
thank you, that really helped me a whole lot!! I like the fact that you used really big rings so that I could see what the hell you were doing!! Some tutorials on making maille and other intricate work, all you can see is the persons hands!! This was awesome!! Keep doing what you're doing!
I'm actually hating the big rings because you can't handle actual rings this way at all so we're just left to figure out on our own how to get several steps in without letting the rings fall out of order.
@@NiteSaiya but it's easier to see what he's doing without the person's hands or tools being in the way. How he holds them is irrelevant because we all hold our work and tools our own way, what's important is the weave/pattern of the rings. Once that clicks in your head its cake. At least it was for me. I tried 3 or 4 different methods from other videos and this is the only one that made sense to me, but that may just be because of how my brain sees it as a puzzle? I hope you find what works for you
Getting it started from scratch was the toughest part like you said. But after that initial difficulty I think I did alright on my first try. Great tutorial!
Love it, thanks so much. you went all the way to explain how to do this, thank you, thank you, thank you.
If I had seen this weave tutorial made by anyone else than you, I might have chucked the video. Lol ! Thank you for using big links with different colors to demonstrate this tutorial! = )
This was immensely helpful, thank you.
Great Video, I am brand new and was able to make this after watching your video. Thank you very much
Great tutorial...very helpful now this wave looks easy...
I like the way you show it on the big rings
Great thank you very much very clear and very helpful I'm 64 and just started doing Chain maille
Thanks alot for this great Video. I had some trouble figuring out how to properly start on this chain.
Greetings from Germany
You should start this video stating it is the left hand version. Very good tutorial!
Great tutorial! I found it a little difficult being right handed, so i held them in my left hand and kept the "bottom" row on the top. Then it went much more quickly!
Excellent video!
Ok, I have to say, this was an amazing tutorial. I played it once, and bam, I made a bracelet. No confusion, no "wait, what did he do?" nothing. It just worked perfectly the first time through so well that I was like "gee, what does everyone think is so hard about this weave? This was easy!" And I started a new one without even having to watch it again to remind myself how to start! Great job! :)
Awesome, good to hear, and thanks! :)
Thank you! At last I can see how it's done instead of just seeing fingers. I shall be making one after work tonight.
Thanks dude, your video helped me a lot
Hasta que lo pude hacer, gracias a su muy buena clase...💯👏👏👏
Your instructions are amazing! I'm going to give it a shot! This, as others have made note on as well, is one of the best detailed instructionals I've ever watched! Now, how about giving one on Kumihimo using all silver and crystal? I would be in your debt forever! You would be my hero!
To2
excelente video, gracias Matt por compartir tus conocimientos.
Matt, I just wanted to tell you that, I don't know what you do during your day job, BUT you are the first person to ever explain this in such an easy way and FAST too! I have been making jewelry as my full time profession, (Facebook.com/Richard K. Wilson) RKOriginals Jewelry; and I cannot tell you how satisfactory your teaching and tutorial making is!!!! keep it up, and both me and my students cannot wait for the next one! Don't make us wait forever. Richard Wilson
Thank you! This is so simple.
Great tutorial!
