Edge Braided Key Fob

[Hell Bent 4 Leather]

I got all my instructions from the book Braided Borders by Enrique Capone. The book costs $42.00 and is worth the price for sure. Here's the link to the book,

Briaded Borders - Enrique Capone

I've never done the mexican round braid as far as a braided border goes. So this pattern uses the over 2, under 2 pattern when you get to that point in the braid. The span is a hole 1 to hole 7. So it does span a longer distance and gives my better coverage and looks fuller when done. This pattern of course takes on that look of the herringbone type braid.

Hope that helps a bit. Feel free to ask anymore questions.

This is an awsome edge braid! What about videos? I do better watching someone in action, rather than looking at still pictures or illustrations, know of any good videos on the subject? I'd love to learn how this is done!

As far as videos go. I would not be able to give any type of accurate info on that. I have not seen any videos done on this subject yet. Maybe someone else knows of some videos done on this.

Brian,

Very neat. Nicely done my friend. As you mentioned there are many options to try. I just came back from Argentina and I saw one border that has some kind of a O2, U2, O1, U1, O2, U2 pattern. I bought a hobble with this border and I will try to decode it. It should be very easy.

Cheers,

Enrique

I can't wait till you do decode that one. I would love to try that one myself. Thanks for the gracious comments also. Welcome home also.

There is a feller on youtube that has the 1 to 5 and 1 to 7 edge braid videos. You will find him by the name of El Rincon Del Soguero (Rawhider or Leather Worker's Corner ).
