Bet you can't guess...

what I am going to write about! Braiding? Really? Why would you ever think that?

Ok yes it is another braid. I really like this one. The photos don't do much for it but it is really pretty in the hand.

Details:
Red Black and white 1mm satin
cut 5'.
Set up BWRRBRRR
Basic round braid
26" knot to knot. Diameter 6-7mm.



I broke and ordered more books. Inkle Weaving by Helene Bress. I would greatly appreciate it if someone would tell me where I put it though! I shuffled the books around on the bookcase, filing books I'm not currently reading or working with, to make space for the books that have come in over the past few weeks. Now I can't find it. I will, it's just playing hiding and seek right now.

I ordered more braiding books too. 200 Braids to Loop, Knot, Weave & Twist by Jacqui Carey and Braids: 250 Patterns from Japan, Peru, and Beyond by Rodrick Owen.

I warped the inkle loom for card weaving yesterday morning and started weaving this morning. I discovered that even after double checking the cards I still threaded 2 incorrectly. I then spent too much time correcting it. Started again, only to discover that one of the cards I fixed now has a twist in the warp in front of the cards. Typical false starts. Oh well, I have that card un-knotted and will fix it in the morning.
