Kumihimo, Japanese for "gathered strands", is an ancient form of braiding that combines multiple strands of cords like paracord, rope, string, or ribbon. Traditionally kumihimo braiding uses a marudai, but these can be expensive and hard to move around. Foam disks make kumihimo affordable and attainable for the everyday crafter. And with this 4 Piece Kumihimo Disk Set from Craft County you can embrace this beautiful art-form at a fraction of the cost. These disks are amazingly convenient, lightweight, and easy-to-use. Simply run the strands you wish to braid through the center and tie them off. Then line up the braids evenly, separated by direction as shown in the pictures, and you can begin braiding! Create your own unique designs and braids to give you the perfect fit for your project. Make braids for jewelry, purses, lanyards, belts, accessories, and so much more!
