Course Description: This is a follow-on course to the Beginners Braids and the Milanese Flame courses. In this piece you will learn how to start at a point and add new pairs to the center of the braid. You will then work a more advanced Braid (Figure of Eight), learning how to manipulate the braid to work it around a curve, and how to work and tension a braid that uses turning stitches. You will then finish at a point and roll back with a Withof roll, learning how to work a tapered roll in order to use pairs in the next section. You will then work a different braid, learning how to manage curves using blind pins. You will also learn the difference between top/bar and side/edge sewings and work a ten stick/rib too.
