There are hundreds of patterns you can use from the simple 8-thread rotating stitch to ones with 400 steps!!!
Braids can be created round or flat depending on whether you use and rotating cross over pattern or a switch over pattern.
The Kumihimo Disk come in square and circle formats and are made from dense foam with slots in the edges of the foam at measured intervals.
