Braid Spool


I made this braid spool last year. I've not used it yet as I haven't taken the time to learn how to do it. I'll get around to it some time though. For now it makes a good ornament. I'm not sure my wife would agree. I made it from a section of windfall branch I found. A Turk's Head in black paracord goes around it. I used a fid and white 1mm cord to highlight it. I think it really brings out the flow of it.

Looks good. They are easy to use once you start. I have one made from a wooden thread spool

Thanks Apex. I will get around to using it eventually.

Bight - any curved section, slack part, or loop between the two ends of a rope, string, or yarn.
