DECORATIVE KNOTTING
Three-Strand Braid
The most common use for this braid is for braiding hair. However, it’s
also a good way to tie three lengths of rope into a single braided rope
for more strength.
1 To start, you’ll need three cords. The cords may simply be held
together, or you can tie them together at the top. To start braiding,
move the left cord to cross over middle cord.
2 Next, take the right cord and cross it over the new middle cord.
