In-depth instructions are given, along with clear diagrams; recommended braiding yarns for slings and kumihimo; detailed set-up instructions; and many fascinating contemporary applications. This book introduces a new piece of equipment, the core frame, and gives instructions for making it from wood and dowels. When the core frame is used with a braiding stand and bobbins, a wide variety of core-carrying braids become accessible to kumihimo braiders. Most of the braids, from 4 to 40 strands, can be made on the included 32-slot braiding card designed specifically for Andean braiding, and 50 patterns can be made on the stand without a frame.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rodrick Owen, Terry Newhouse Flynn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0764351036\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780764351037\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Schiffer Craft\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/28\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.20h x 8.70w x 1.00d","brand":"Rodrick Owen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44522265313535,"sku":"9780764351037","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a60b8f9a-c5f6-46ac-8ae3-6d620c8a9265.jpg?v=1700156372","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/andean-sling-braids-rodrick-owen-9780764351037","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
