Thanks to Isa et Noe's wonderful site I recently leaned how to do a 4 strand braid. This morning while getting ready for work I decided to try doing one as a french braid and was utterly delighted to find that I can do it! The first few weavings are tricky because its a lot to hold onto and keep track of, but once the strands are well established its quite easy. :D I'll post photos after work since now I really do have to finish getting ready to go.

Next mission is the 5 strand braid. My hair is finally at a length where I have some working room to do these amazing multi strand braids. That makes me a happy camper indeed.:cheese:

That's gorgeous!! I can't wait until my hair is long enough to try it... although I'm not sure I'll be able to actually do it. I love it! (And your earrings too, very cool :p)

This is just beautiful! Your gorgeous hair and the lovely braid. Going to see if I can get this to work for me, but may not be able to get my left hand to cooperate.... :o(

Thank you for posting the pics!
