Hello! Hope this finds you all well ❤️I want to start a pattern that is 35x40, but the d-rings I have only allow upto 20 (10 strings looped to make 20) Is there a way to fit the 35 on the d-ring somehow? Thanks in advance! |

Yes, any amount should be possible If you start with 13 knots per row, you'll need (35-13)÷2=11 rows until you get to your desired 35 knots. |

I'm so sorry, I've been trying to understand this but I keep getting lost at the numbers.Do I start with 13 larks head knots and the rest (9) will be looped over like shown in the tutorial? |

Don't forget to tag me when you reply, otherwise it might take me a while until I see your reply.If I understand your set-up correctly, it should be 5 loop-over threads* - 8 larks head knots - 5 loop-over threads * one of the 5 loop-over threads on the left edge is your first leading string: one end is a base string, the other end is your first leading string |

According to your initial post, your d-ring only allows 10 larks head knots. That means you do 8 larks head knots and the rest of the stings need to be loop-over thread on the left and the right of those strings.
