This is a great looking weave that is easy to make and is a great begginners weave too.Now first put 2 open rings in 2 closed rings then another three open rings in the last 2 rings.

Looks to me you've got 2 + 2 + 2 rings here, not 2 + 2 + 3 (?)

how did you put 2 open rings in 2 closed ones, (i know stupid question...) What tool did you use? Were the pieces straight? Sorry about all the questions, I'm new to jewelry thing and I admire your work.

Open rings look like the top right ring in the pic for step three. By weaving one side of the closed rings through the opening, one can get the closed rings into the open ones. Then a deft twist of the wrist and the open rings are closed. :)
