Part 2 on my 'thumbs' method for making the 10-loop double braid as a solo braider.
00:01 Examples of finished braids.
02:38 Lifting "parked loops" off a peg-type holder.
05:07 Braiding: Solid rectangle (all loop transfers are turned/ reversed/ crossed).
The color pattern was called Crowns in the 17th C. loop braiding manuscripts.
12:24 Unbraiding back to beginning.
19:51 Starting over (braiding the Crowns pattern starting from beginning again).
25:42 Switching to the color set-up for the pattern called "Edge" (also known by other names).
Sorry, cut off at end!
Will have to make yet a third video on this at some point.
My blog post explains how to set the loops on the fingers to make either the "Crowns" or the "Edge" pattern:
