Dan,
I know that my instructions for doing the 4 strand round braid are the other way round from most others, but this way of braiding has always made more sense to me.
I am not even sure if I have ever seen it instructed this way or that I just turned the instructions round, I just know that I have been doing it this way almost as long as I did the round and square braiding.
But I am known to do most things different and to differ in opinion with the specialists and get their agreement that it works my way. (Not always better.)
I also believe that if there are 2 sets of instructions for any knot or braid and both are right as well as different, it is best to offer them both.
Since some people will pick up things one way, others will understand and remember an other way.
The best course in knots I ever heard about had three teachers, each using a different method of tying knots, and each student would ask each of them how to tie the knot and remember the way that worked best for that student. (A good thing they were volunteers, otherwise it would have been a very expensive course.)
About the missing link, it has been shown here before and while the site is adult with strange taste, the braiding instructions were not bad. For those curious and adult, google will have the link. Do not bother if you just want to braid, many better sites for that.
I sometimes search for where my own links end up, (that is how I got here,) and some did go to places I do not want to go myself. But as long as they link and do not want me to return the favour, I do not mind.
