How To Make a 24 Warp Kumihimo Round Braid

Hey just a word of friendly advice from someone with experience in the subject, E-6000 is really toxic and the micro particles you take in through breathing the fumes and absorption through skin don't break down well in your body, they just continuously build up in your lipid cells, meaning if you get really sick or get in an accident and then end up losing weight, the E-6000 stored in those cells are re-absorbed into the body and can end up causing severe E-6000 toxicity, this can cause liver and kidney failure. I highly advise using gloves, a respirator and being in a very well ventilated room/outside whenever using E-6000. I took the warning labels as lightly as you seem to be and I am now months and months into dealing with the repercussions and it doesn't look as though I'm close to being 100% again.

[@michelealdworth9297]

[@dross24MA]

As you were describing how to move the cords, I started laughing, and here's why: your sequence is easier to remember than others I was taught. Translating yours, I get Left Up, Right Down, Turn or *"LURD,Turn"* - it's silly but easy. I was taught to go Top Down, Bottom Up, Turn (TDBU,Turn) by one person and BUTD, Turn (BUTD,Turn) by another. Neither of these is as easy to remember as yours. Thank you!

[@BubuMarimba]

[@sue7777]

I really enjoy kumihimo until the dreaded "adding of the clasp"-this always gives me the heebeejeebees-it's usually then when a huge goof happens-like the end of the braid won't fit into the end of the clasp connector, that's my signal to put it down and try it again later.

[@beadaholique]

Thanks for watching! With the Kumihimo technique, unfortunately, you cannot tie on more thread as you go. This would mean each warp can only be made up of one thread in one color. One option could be to make separate braids and join them together using cord end caps and other findings.

[@grandmasmagic3858]

[@dross24MA]

?Questions? Is there any chance you would make a video (or some videos) on developing patterns, and is there a formula or logic for patterning?

[@KellyBellcambridgegiftsbykelly]

I think this is great. I have a round and a square pad. My question is about the color work pattern. In the beginning you use blue, purple; red,purple- but for the rest of the two color combo groups you alternate the position of the first color in the lead group to the second color in the next group? I’m writing this before watching the whole video so you may explain it- but I wanted to ask before I forget. Thanks for sharing and happy crafting.

[@RowAndRest]

What is the placement for a 20 strand braid on a 64 slot disk?

[@gingergaudette8204]

can someone who has experience with kumihimo tell me whether it matters if you turn the disk counter clockwise of clockwise. I'm left handed and turn the disk clockwise. It doesn't seem to matter with 8 cord braid but might with more complex braids.

The initial set up for them was reversed purple should have been where the blue was to keep the pattern going. Or she should have put blue next to red. But that wouldnt be a rainbow-esque pattern

[@leticiagarcia2159]

On Pinterest look for kumihimo patterns, I have the regular 32 slots kumihimo discs but I notice there are no tutorials for a 24 strands or other different count of strands, so I came up with an idea on making my own kumihimo discs base on the count of strands that the pattern is calling for example if the pattern calls for 24 strands, my kumihimo disc would have 48 slots if another pattern calls for 30 strands my kumihimo would have 60 slots, depending on the number of strands double up the slots on your kumihimo disc, there’s lots of patterns on Pinterest that would show you the position of the strands.

My OCD is going crazy with the placement of the chords. Lol Why not keep them 4 spaces apart each?

[@therealAQ]

because 12 does not divide 64

[@beadaholique]

Sadly, it is not an even equation. 24 is not divisible by 64. I know it can hurt the brain a little bit. But anchoring it at the dots is an easy way to keep track of the braid as it travels around the board.

[@PaulMurrayCanberra]

@10:33 aren't those blue/purple pairs each around the wrong way? The 32 and the 64. On all the other pairs, adjacent pairs have their outside color matching. The blue/purple pairs break that pattern.

[@MrSpikesterman]

how long it take you to do all that braiding

[@CalMariner]

I think she means "double thickness" - suspect that the disks are all made of the same density material...

[@vampybitesss]

It's probably the product name Sounds cooler in a pr room then what the words actually mean

[@andalouchien]

Obviously it's not "double thickness" as that would imply either the disk or the slots are twice the thickness of a regular disk, which they aren't Just as obviously, density is referring to the quantity instead of the material itself. Much like "population density", this disk is used for braids of more "thread density"

[@vampybitesss]

@@andalouchien uh no The "double density" disks don't have more thread slots They're just thicker. Threads will have a better grip in the thicker disk but that doenst mean your braids will be denser. The density of your braids relies on how tightly packed your knots are ...

[@beadaholique]

This Kumihimo Double Density Disk is twice as thick as standard Kumihimo disks. This creates additional tension when braiding Tex 135 S-Lon, #12 pearl Silk, or 30 gauge and smaller wire. Thanks for watching!

[@CalMariner]

@@beadaholique thanks for clarifying. We were just discussing that this makes them double thickness, not double density. I think we've just chalked it up to the alliteration being more sexy for the marketing dept.

If you want to try different patterns I recommend doing a sample swatch. It's what we do here to see what the result will be. We are working on putting out more free patterns to help guide you.

[@maried914]

How do you determine what color goes where??

[@maryhinkley1237]

Would burning the ends work as well as the glue to keep the ends from fraying?

[@beadaholique]

You can burn the ends of S-Lon, but you will still need glue to attach your clasp so the method in the video simply skips a step.

[@bessevaraven859]

It depends on what you're using. Some melt others burn...you can do a test on each material. You can use hemp, slow, emb floss, yarns, and a ton more

[@gihantawfik2667]

[@beadaholique]

It can take about an hour or two depending on how fast you are trying to go. The first time I did it, it took me about three hours because I wanted to get the braid down, but after that I could speed it up. It gets very zen-like.

This is one of those design processes that really rewards trial and error, that's how we learned to do it. Start by choosing a color pallet, cut a foot or so of each color you want to include, and then weave a few one inch test swatches to see how different cord placements effect the braid.

Where do u get chord

[@beadaholique]

The cord is S-Lon, we have a large selection here: beadaholique.com/collections/beading-cord-ribbon?_=pf&pf_v_brand=S-Lon%20(Super-Lon)

[@jacobwhite8204]

You. An also use masons line for this it is basically the same thing as the string they are using in this video and is half the price

[@beadaholique]

That's not a bad idea, I've never tried braiding with masons line but it would probably work well for this application. Just be careful when you're doing beaded kumihimo to match the color of the line to the overall tone of your piece. With beaded kumihimo the line shows through the gaps in the beads, and those bright colors that Mason line tends to come in will show up especially well, so make sure it's a good color.

[@Ddrhl]

It's snap rings that bother me...they don't stay closed. Do you ever solder them?

[@beadaholique]

If you are referring to the jump rings, I can confirm they keep their shape very well if only opened and closed once. If you try opening and closing them more than once or twice, they can get weak. You could potentially solder them closed as well. Thanks for watching!
