KUSARI TSUNAGI BRAID. This 14-page information-packed tutorial teaches you
everything about braiding the Kusari Tsunagi braid on a Foam Disk (although there is alot of useful info for the marudai braider as well).  It doesn't just tell you how to make the braid but goes to greater lengths to provide a well-rounded understanding of the braid. Included in this tutorial are braiding sequence diagrams, point of braiding explanations, tips on reading the braid and suggested color patterns for 11 braids.

Once you have a command of this braid, you will be ready to add it to your repertoire of braids. It is also a fun braid to embellish with beads.  

Since this is a pattern only, it is up to the maker to choose their own components. Following are some of the braiding fibers and tools I recommend:

Kumihimo Thick Foam Disk
Plastic Bobbins
Petite Satin Cord
Kumihimo Jubilee Ribbon
Kumihimo Rayon Filament
Kumihimo Rayon Ribbon
Kumihimo Rayon Gimp
Kumihimo Shimmer Yarn

And all fibers used in combination with each other!
