FOUR·STRAND
SINNET
Second type

The special feature of this
braid is the fact that the two
center strands are not braided
together, but act as the warp
while the two outer ones act
as a weft.

Method
Begin by crossing the two
outer strands between the
two center strands, thus
changing their starting
positions (1). The cycle is
completed by bringing the
outer strands back to their
original positions after they
have been crossed around the
center strands (2). Repeat
these steps until the braid is
completed (3,4,5). The end
result is a plat that has an
almost circular cross section
and can be used as a cord (6).
