@@ClaudiaWollny Hello Claudia, I sent you a friend request on Facebook. If you accept it I can show you what I'm going to be doing with what I learned from your videos. I will be using your techniques but not making the type of products you're making . Also it's also for a charity.
Beautiful! Are you familiar with sageo? Braided chords like this used in japanese sword sheaths. It looks very similar to me, and I am thinking of using this technique to make my own sageo. Can I ask you, what is the thickness of the chord stock that you buy to make those?
For the braid which I am working on in the video (black/blue/light blue) and also the one which you can see at the end (black/yellow/light brown), I used very fine silk which I warped by myself (16 or 24 fine threads per rope/strand). All strands are of the same thickness. The braid with a different color arrangement (yellow/orange/red/lilac) is of simple cotton crocheting yarn which is used for chrocheting potholders! In this case, you don't need to warp and can use the yarn without preparing a strand. It's a very comfortable yarn to exercise. Also it has a nice (not shiny) appearance. In my other videos (Sakura Genji - Cherry Blossom, or Hira Kara - Snake Braid) I used original Japanese precut silk yarn.
Thank you for showing us these amazing videos. I too am wondering where you purchase your threads from? Also when making these wraps I assume you wind them yourself with a desktop device? I am learning on the a disk now with over 150 unique threads, silks, cotton, nylon ribbons, and hemp. Each seem to create a different end product. Any advice of affordable threads is greatly appreciated.
TH-cam has got a function to show it in a slow motion. Or you have to stop the video after each step. There are only 4 steps that have to be repeated. Watch the groups. I couldn't make it too slow ;)
Beautiful tutorial, I love the Hang Drum music, and your braiding is akin to dancing with your hands
This video is so well done, professional and educational. Somebody knew what they where doing. BTW I'm a pro videographer and editor
Rich, thank you so much! That really encourages me to make more videos. All the best, Claudia

What string may i use to do this? Been planning what to do. Thank you! 😊
You may use thick yarn (cotton) or you can warp the strands out of fine yarn (silk, cotton).
Can this be done on a Kumihimo Disk?
Of course, the moves are the same. You have to adapt them to the disk.
May I ask what thread you are using? I love the finished look but I stuggle with picking threads myself and would love some guidance.
