Kumihimo - Takadai Braiding Stream - 210 Andrea Burkhart edition

Well, we've got the first item in the pattern done. Let's see if we can get the second one done tonight.

This braid is for Andrea Burkhart. https://www.youtube.com/@aburkhartlaw

here are 3 books/2 programs to teach how to braid and how to design pickup braids.

First book is Makiko Tada's "Comprehensive Treatise of Braids V - Taka-Dai Braids III" Which is out of print.

Second book, is Rodrick Owen's "Making Kumihimo - Japanese Interlaced Braids."

This book can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/Making-Kumihimo-Japanese-Interlaced-Braids/dp/1861083122

And here https://www.alibris.com/search/books/isbn/9781861083128

Third book/first program is Clarie Cassan's "Kumihimo: Nimai Kôrai Gumi, A step-by-step guide to mastering pick-up braids on the Taka-dai" and the associated program you get to use when you buy the book. I like this program the best as it has a step by step playback of the pattern so you can easily braid along with it.

You can find it here: http://www.artisanart.biz/Store/index.html

The second program is Takadraft, which is can be purchased at Braidershand. https://braidershand.com/cd-takadraft-2-0-digital-download.
