8 strand round edge braid: how do you do corners and how do you end?

Recommended Posts

I’d like to use this braid as the stitching on a tote and am trying to figure out how to go around the corners and the best way to end the braid. 
 

Thank you in advance for any advice!

 Now realizing that you are using a different braid than I use ...I have some correcting and editing to do to my initial post. I referring to using the edge braid on Grant's page 299.

 I have braided around corners many times. What I do is mark the holes in a straight line to and from the corner, then I indent the corner hole a bit and braid around the corner like it isn't there. 

 In regards to the ending of this braid ...if you are using a single lace in a forward three holes, back two ...with the tucks = when you come to the end you continue just by going forward two and back one using the same tucks.
