Members wlg190861 Posted March 23, 2014 Members Report Posted March 23, 2014 How do I go about this type of braid ? Quote
Members LTC Posted March 23, 2014 Members Report Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) that is a "mystery braid" if you google it you should find some instructions for it. Edited March 23, 2014 by LTC Quote
Members wlg190861 Posted March 23, 2014 Author Members Report Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) It's a mystery alright. I know how to do the three strand and the five strand mystery braid but, the one in the picture is neither one of them. Hmmm! I'm stumped Edited March 23, 2014 by wlg190861 Quote
Members LTC Posted March 23, 2014 Members Report Posted March 23, 2014 theres tutorials for a lot of different types of mystery braids online. Quote
Members wlg190861 Posted March 23, 2014 Author Members Report Posted March 23, 2014 I don't find that one. Do you know the type of mystery braid it is ? Quote
Members LTC Posted March 23, 2014 Members Report Posted March 23, 2014 it looks like the one in Grant's book on page 51. Quote
Members DoubleC Posted March 23, 2014 Members Report Posted March 23, 2014 It's called a night latch. You make three slits in your leather (or 15 if you want, depending on how long you want it to continue) and pull the long end of the leather through the first slit and going through on the same side on all of them, do the same on 2 and 3. It shows both sides of the leather that way. Cheryl Quote http://www.etsy.com/shop/DoubleCCowgirl
