Kumihimo is a traditional Japanese craft that is made by braiding thin silk or cotton threads.
Many people may have seen it used for obijime and netsuke.

When we hear the word braid, it is easy to imagine a Japanese style, but there are other ways to use it than its original purpose.
It can be widely used for key chains, accessories, interior accessories, etc.
The good news is that anyone can easily make braided cords.

The only tools you need are a ``marudai'' with a hole in the center, a ``braid disk'', ``braid plate'', and thread.
You can use a stool or a bath chair as long as it has a hole.

This book uses these three types of tools to introduce 50 different ways of assembling, from easy to advanced.
All assembly methods are illustrated, so even first-timers can easily assemble them.
We also provide solutions for when you are having trouble assembling things, and ways to remember when you have forgotten how to assemble them.

Also included are recipes for accessories using braided cord by three handmade artists.
Delicate and cute pieces such as necklaces, bracelets, and head accessories are lined up.

Whether you're familiar with braids or not, you'll be able to discover new charms of braids.
Please try making your own braids while enjoying the color arrangement and the beauty of the braids.
