Donata's directions:

CTM continuous thread method R ring p or - picot ch chain SR split ring SCH split chain

+ = joining ( ) where to join sh A shuttle A sh B shuttle B rw reverse work cl close ring

Wind shuttles CTM and begin with shuttle A as shuttle thread and shuttle B as ball thread.
*R= 6 - 6 cl, rw
ch = 10 rw
repeat from * 3 times
SR= 6 / 6
switch shuttles so B is shuttle thread and A is ball thread
ch 4, rw
**R= 6 - 6 cl, rw
ch 4 + (to next free p of ring) 4 rw
repeat from ** 2 times
switch shuttles so A is shuttle thread and B is ball thread (do not reverse work before starting split chain; begin the first stitch from the front so the stitches go downward like the rest of the chain; end with a half stitch so the thread is upward to start next split ring)

using shuttle A sch= join to p of last ring on row 1
ch 4 and 1 / 2 stitches do not reverse work
SR 6 / 6 cl rw
ch 4 rw
R= 6 - 6 cl rw
ch= 4 +(to next free p of ring) 4 rw
R= 6 - 6 cl rw
ch= 4 + (to next free p of ring) 4 rw
switch shuttles so B is shuttle thread and A is ball thread; using shuttle B make split chain as before
