Sewing from braid is an opportunity to get a beautiful pattern on the collar, cuffs, napkin. If you use ready-made braid, special skills are not required. Weave it yourself - and you will receive a handmade jewelry.

Instructions
Step 1
For weaving the braid, you can use leather, rope, threads, satin ribbons. There are various ways to make it. Crochet, knit or weave using the macrame technique. Use colored thread and ribbons.
Step 2
Braid the braid like a pigtail, from three ribbons - this is the easiest option. Braid a plait of four, six ribbons. A braid of four ribbons is woven as follows: tie all ribbons in a knot. First, throw the far right over the ribbon next to it, on top. Then transfer the third ribbon over the fourth. Cross the ribbons in the middle from left to right with each other.
Step 3
The braid of six ribbons is woven a little differently, but the principle of operation is the same. Distribute the ribbons evenly, mark them in the account. Start with the fourth right ribbon, cross it with the third and extend beyond the outermost ones. Cross the fifth and second ribbons in the same way, the overlap should be on top of the previous one. Also, from right to left, twist the outer cords. Repeat the techniques for the entire length of the ribbons, then fasten them together with a knot.
Step 4
Those who know how to crochet know how to weave a chain of air loops. The same chain can be made simply with your fingers, without using a crochet hook.
Step 5
Take a rope or ribbon, tie a knot so that the first loop is formed. Then, insert your index and thumb through it. Hook the thread and pull it through the loop. By repeating the movement, you will create a new loop each time. Take not one, but two multi-colored threads - the braid will turn out to be completely different. The chain obtained in this way can be crocheted on both sides, or you can leave it as it is.
Step 6
If you use strips of leather in your work, you can make a braided braid belt. Cast on six strips of leather, tie them in a knot, or secure by tying them behind the back of a chair. Take the leftmost strip, run over the second, then under the third, over the fourth, under the heel and over the sixth.
Step 7
Leave the strip, now take the second one from the left. Throw it over the third, under the fourth, over the fifth, under the sixth and over the one that was horizontal in the previous row. Repeat with the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth strips, alternating each time to form a braid. This braid can be used as a belt, bookmark for a book. If you collect more strips, you can make a cell phone bag.
