I've been doing leather work, on & off for the last 40 years.

Last 5 years more "on! I'd like to learn to braid. Start with something simple like this bracelet.

I have a book on how to braid, just can't follow it.

Can someone give a simple but direct lesson, with step by step photos ?

Ok I am just guessing but to me it looks like a four stand braid folded in half with a couple of Turks heads to hold the loop in place and both ends of the braid brought together to make a button knot. I think that the diagonal on the outside is laced on afterwards. Go to Knot Heads World Wide and you will find more help there than I can give.
