Introduction to Ply-Split Braiding

Louise French, Instructor

2006-11-7-plysplitting 030d.jpg (208074 bytes)Ply-split braiding was introduced to England and the United States by Peter Collingwood.  Used for centuries by men in northeast India to make girths for their camels, we use this technique to make a variety of decorative, rather than functional, items.  Participants will learn the basic “splits” by making a sampler key ring and a necklace.  Students will also have the opportunity to make cords for future projects. 

Prerequisites: None
