Video 4: Adding the Herringbone Interweave to a Turks Head Knot

After you've practiced and mastered the Turks Head knot, it's time to start adding more fun by working in an interweave. This one will make the knot have a more rounded shape.

Wow ! Thank you ! I always thought braiding was too complicated for me . I love the way you teach . Your videos have been a tremendous help in all of my leather crafting . Keep them coming ! ❤

Great series! I always thought the interweave was done with a tight knot, but this makes way more sense. If you need another project, I would be interested to see how you would do a scarf slide.

It's amazing how a jungled mess can turn into such a great piece of knot magic,great job Aaron you made it very easy to understand.

I love those braiding videos, thank you so much for that! I'm a little unclear about what to do if I want to do the herringbone with the same working lace that I used for the initial turks head. do I cut my working end and start the same way that you did? or do I bring it around and start the herringbone?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

Either way will work.

[@donpayne562]

Is there any secret guesstimateing the size of what you build it up with or just make it a little shorter than the weave? Thanks

[@makersleathersupply1220]

If there is, I havent learned it yet.

So then what? To get that off of the mandrel and use it for say part of a key fob. Or is that the next video? Not being pushy just curious.

[@makersleathersupply1220]

You tighten it wherever you want it to be.
