Need Help With Mexican Round Braid

[quadrary]

I am doing a project with mexican round braid and i need some help. What i need to know is how to start and end the braid when the beginning and end are not in the same place. I need to start the braid on 1 side of the project and go around three sides and end on the opposite side. Any expert that can help i would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you for the replys i have that book and several others but they assume you are braiding all the way around and back to the starting point. The problem is if you are starting at one point and lacing around to a different ending point so the dont join and wanting the beginning and end to look good.

Did you try over at the motorcycle gear threads. There some guys over there that have done some really nice work on seats, maybe someone there could help?
