tying the knot: the crochet braid knot that is,lol :)

I received many request asking me to do a tutorial on tying the knot for the crochet braid. Tying the knot is so second nature to me, that I am not very skilled when it comes to explaining how to do the procedure. That, I think, is very apparent in this video. I am kind of fumbling through this experiment and am not really quite sure I accomplished what I set out to do. I hope the one thing this video aids the viewers in is trusting yourself to trouble shoot the problem. Get creative with finding a solution, so that you can discover that technique that you are most comfortable doing. As with many things, there is no one way or wrong way to do this. Discover your way :). That is what the art of haircare is all about, finding what works for you. So maybe this is a video "how to" on trusting yourself to find how to do what works for you. Good luck!

Girl, you would be amazed at what everyone "should know" and does not know. Truth be told I have also made similar mistakes. I have hair styling disaster stories galore,lol :).

EGH! Please stop apologizing to these people. You do a wonderful job explaining. If they want a professional they can go pay money to buy one of those program thingies.

u should probably get straight to the point and not talk so much. It shouldn't take 10 min. to talk about a knot

Sometimes when a knot wont stay tied is because the hair strand is too thick.

The knot is a square knot which means the second time you tie it you should tie it in the opposite direction of the first knot. (If you went right over left go left over right) Its basically the same way a shoe knot works (minus the bow). If you remeber that the knot is less likely to come out.

[nky5208]
