Ingrid Crickmore | 10-loop FLAT double braid (with borders) @loopbraider | Uploaded February 2013 | Updated October 2024, 27 minutes ago.
Learn my 10-loop, flat double braid method first. This video shows how to make it with a one- or two-colored border on the edges of the braid. This involves a new way to do the loop-exchange (the second-to-last move, just before you tighten the loops).

I demo a two-color border, white on one edge, black on the other--not a great look on this particular braid! Just good for a demo, go ahead and pick better colors for your own braid. For the SAME color on both sides, make the left loops all one color, (no bicolor left loops). For a stripey or other pattern to the border, start with a MIX of colors for the left loops.

9-loop square and flat braids are prerequisite to my 10-loop double braid technique, see my other tutorials.
