Members entiendo Posted July 20, 2011 Members Report Posted July 20, 2011 Thank you Brain...I think I'm on my way, and I'm wishing that I had one of your clips! LOL Sorry about the poor quality, it was taken with my nifty phone. When I'm done I'll take better pictures. I wish I would have split the string a little thinner, so I'm not sure it's going to be the perfect piece I wanted but probably nice all the same. Quote

Members KnotHead Posted July 20, 2011 Members Report Posted July 20, 2011 Ah... Now that makes feel right at home. LOL... That braid is lookin real nice entiendo. B... Quote Best Regards, Brian Kidd
Members entiendo Posted July 20, 2011 Members Report Posted July 20, 2011 It's just a beautiful braid. I have about 5 inches now and I just LOVE it. Thank you so much. Now I have to ask what's the sequence with more strings? Do you know? It would seem you only go over and under 1 only for the corners, but with a wider braid I'm not sure where the corners should be.

Members KnotHead Posted July 20, 2011 Members Report Posted July 20, 2011 Hi. Sequences for the following go, 12 strand you already know. 16 strand - U3, O1, U1, O3 20 strand - U4, O1, U1, O4 I'll have to work out the others some how. But that should give you a good idea. B...

Members entiendo Posted July 20, 2011 Members Report Posted July 20, 2011 You rock knothead! Thank you so much. I was actually thinking 24 strand. It seems strange the last part of the sequence of the 20 goes over 4 rather than over 2 and under 2. I haven't worked with anything over 12 so what do I know anyway. Quote
Members KnotHead Posted July 20, 2011 Members Report Posted July 20, 2011 Give the 20 strand a try like that then. See what you come up with. I know the pattern will change on either side giving you a different pattern on either side. HMMM... Ideas, Ideas... LOL.... B... Quote Best Regards, Brian Kidd
Members entiendo Posted July 20, 2011 Members Report Posted July 20, 2011 (edited) Now I hadn't thought of that, you are right. Wouldn't want to go to the trouble of making a flat braid smooth on both sides and then not make it the same all the way around. Still have to think on it. How does the sequence go for normal rounds after 12? And here it is. I'm a little disappointed I didn't split the strings even thinner. I didn't want a break. It could have been smoother if I did, but it is a very pretty braid. Now that I see the picture up close I have to say the actual braid is much smoother in real life. I wonder if the shadows are making things a little distorted. Edited July 20, 2011 by entiendo Quote
