Braiding During COVID – Several braiders in the US and beyond share stories of how their braiding communities were able to find creative ways to braid together during the year of the lock down.

The Exhibition Not Open “KUMIHIMO – Zig Zag Magic“ – Due to COVID 19 the LIXIL Braid Exhibition that was scheduled to be held from March 6th to May 19th, 2020 in Tokyo, Japan never opened.

In this in-depth overview Makiko Tada takes us on a virtual tour complete with exhibition photos, history and more.

Several braiding projects – Masumi Tada, Makiko Tada, and Katherine Buenger all share some very creative tutorials. Enjoy kumihimo projects on the octo plate and marudai as well as Sami Braids that are worked by hand without equipment.
