TomG Report post Posted December 29, 2017 I am trying to do a flat braid, plait or whatever. I really don't know the proper name for it. I need some instructions or direction please. I've tried a bunch of different slot and connector length combinations, but just can't seem to get the proper combination to make it look right. Thanks in advance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomG Report post Posted December 31, 2017 Nope.. It's not a Mystery Braid. I've heard it called a Slotted Plait, Slotted Braid and a few others. But nothing shows up on any of those search phrases Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
