Laramie Braid- Advanced Kumihimo
Thursday Oct 19th 5:30pm – 9:30pm
The Laramie braid requires a core to braid around. The core can be made of many materials; a piece of rope or satin cord, several pieces of yarn, a piece of plastic tubing or wire. It can be firm or flexible depending on the intended use. The core is completely covered in the process of braiding. The size of the core will affect the width of the braid. A thicker core means a wider braid and vice versa. The core should measure approximately 12 inches longer than the desired finished braid. Class Pre-requisite: Intro to Kumihimo.
