Members KnotHead Posted June 27, 2009 Members Report Posted June 27, 2009 I did this little key fob for my pastors wife as a belated mothers day present. Colors used are; Brown Bad Whiskey Black Did a 4 strand round braid, lashed that off with some black tape so I could get a decent shape for the upcoming Pineapple Knot. Pineapple Knot started with a 9 part 4 bight casa knot as the base for my Pineapple Interweave. Finished off with some Pecards leather dressing. Brian... Quote Best Regards, Brian Kidd
HorsehairBraider Posted June 27, 2009 Report Posted June 27, 2009 Nice, Brian! Man, that 'roo lace braids up nice. I just did a stampede string with it and I like that stuff. Your knot is real even and just very nice. It's a great piece and I bet she will love it! Quote They say princes learn no art truly, but the art of horsemanship.

Members KnotHead Posted June 27, 2009 Author Members Report Posted June 27, 2009 Thank you for your kind words bro... I love to work with roo lace also. Once my braiding mentor introduced me to it, I've never been back but only to use up the other stuff I have. Roo just braids some much better and cleaner, especially if you get it cut and beveled.
