A short Tut. on covering a tool handle

[TwoCrow]

I posted this short tutorial in the "How do I do that" forum a long time back. A few people in this forum have been curious since then about covering tool handles.

First I start with the ground work. I started with a long pineapple knot

Added the first interweave

The second interweave won't go through the whole knot

The third and finale interweave I used only goes around the largest part of the handle.

The knot is done.

That's how I cover my old tool handles!

I'm not much of a braider and hope I'm not leading anyone a stray.

Best of luck,

Not much of a braider!! I don't agree with that. Great job. I could never do that although I wish I could.
