Ingrid Crickmore | Chevron & Stripes square braid pattern (7 loops) @loopbraider | Uploaded June 2012 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
A color-pattern made from a combo of bicolor and single-color loops. Here 4 bicolor green+red loops, and 3 single-color loops: Black, White, Black. This video is not for learning the braiding moves, just the color-pattern. To learn the braiding moves, see my "START HERE video (5 loops): youtube.com/watch?v=mSS5yw4OWOM, and my "CONTINUE HERE" video (7-loops):

0:42 Loop arrangement on fingers
1:14 Beginning of braiding moves
2:50 Halfway through one pattern repeat
4:13 View of the emerging braid pattern--chevrons over lengthwise stripes. Information about variations on the pattern.
5:57 Continuing with square braid moves
6:18 Accidental dropping of loop bundle, recovery and error-check.
7:35 Braiding.
8:00 Halfway through a pattern repeat
8:38 How to make sure that the bicolor loops are in the correct orientation.
9:54 Tightening (gently and widely)
