Ingrid Crickmore | 8-loop FLAT double braid (4 columns) @loopbraider | Uploaded February 2013 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Learn my 8-loop, flat double braid method first, then the bordered version of the flat braid. This video shows how to make the same braid with 4 columns of different colors. This involves a new way to do the single turned loop transfer (outer right loop transfer, midde finger to right index finger). The loop will receive TWO turns instead of one, so the colors of the upper and lower shanks of the loop will not change, even though the loop is turned.
The colors on the hand that gets the one turned transfer will be in the center of the braid, the colors on the hand that has NO turned loops (here, the left hand) will be the two outer columns of the braid---the two outer edges of the flat braid.
7-loop square and flat fingerloop braids are prerequisite to 8-loop double braids.
These videos are supplements to my website tutorial. Go to my site to find the full tutorial, and many more, for beginning to advanced level braids:
