Im looking for info on making an 8 strand round braid. I can only find one tutorial on the net and its confusing as hell. I can make an 8 strand braid if i double them up, escentially doing the normal 4 strand round braid, just using 2 strands instead of one.
The 8 strand is a pain in the butt. I can make the 8 strand herring bone braid ??? Found that on the net, but it comes out square. i need it round. Im just getting into this, so its frustrating. Any good braiding books yall can recommend. Not interested in knots, or anything, just solid braiding technique.
Incidentally, the herring bone 8 strand braid is: 4 strands on each side. Top strand goes around back, under 2 over 2 (or as i like to think of it, Through the Middle), then back to its original side.
Any help would be GREAT!
