I just got a large circle and a large square last week and wondered what to do with them. Then all of a sudden this video pops up on my feed. Thank you! Two years later. LOL
What I want to know is who in the world came up with this? Same with knitting and crochet. I mean, knitting is basically two sticks and some yarn and crochet is a hooked twig. Who looked at these twigs and said "I can make something with that!" and got some yarn/rope and came up with stitches and what not. It's crazy! TYSM for sharing Steve!
It started in Japan, making the sash for the ceremonial robes and the cord for the sword handles
Braiding started with all women since the beginning of time. It was before Pantene. The Japanese certainly have perfected the craft with the long cords they make. Much respect for the Obi. Women have braided hair to keep it out of the way, ever since we convinced men to stop dragging us around by it. Long before God separated us by race. ❤✝️🙏
@@plumbbomb77 No. Braiding hair is a woman thing. We've been doing it since the cave age. Long before God divided up the races and tongues. The Japanese have just perfected it beautifully. The Obi, a belt on a kimono, is apparently made with kumihimo in Japan. I saw one video and it was beautiful, tho' she messed it up at first. She still made it 5 or 6 feet long. I was flabbergasted!
This actually dates back to ancient China
@mawi1172 Lol. As if no culture in human history had men with braids in their hair and beard. Modern Western(ie American) culture is just one recent culture among many thousand that existed in the past. It's hardly special.
Yes, please do a video on how to finish them. I have some made and need to buy the correct end caps. Thank you. 😊
This is so cool! Thank you
I have never had the opportunity to work on this craft. I decided to buy a Kumihimo kit at thrift store today. I always thought it was a fancy way of braiding. I’m going to try it today.
Duuuude I love your voice and the way you are speaking 🥰 so lovely ❤ and also very nice and easy to understand video 🎉
Would love more kumihimo into jewelry. Yes!
Ha forgot my mantra!! Had to come back and watch!!
Thank you bought them off your link so enjoying this I forget to eat chocolate please post more tutorials x
I still remember how we did this in the late 80's and early 90's safety pinned to our pegged jeans and tying knots.
Oh my word! As soon as I read this I remembered doing this, too, as a kid.
Thank you so kindly Steve. Love this. ❤️
Thanks for getting to the point. Some instructors take a while and I like your no nonsense approach. I just jave the square one but it makes round spirals just fine. A multi functional tool.
That is excellent. More please. I would like to see how you do the finish.
Jajajajajaja pensemos nosotras con taponcitos o mechitas
I love it! Yes! Show us more!
❤thanks Steve!! Beautiful 🤩
That's really cool! I would love to see how you put the end caps on and make jewelry with them!
Those are all so beautiful! You're a pro at this.❤
Steve, this video was fascinating, I have never heard of this form of braid making before, and I think it's utterly beautiful. I was mesmerized by the last two you did, I must say! I would really love to see you create bangles, and other things with the braids, so please do make a video showing us how you do that, if you wouldn't mind. I think this would be a great art form to get into during cold winter evenings by the fire. I would also like to see you making the braids with beads on them, I think you mentioned that on another video. Can you show us all the ways you can use the braids please Steve? Thank you in advance. God bless you and yours, now and always.
This would be a video that I would watch over and over again (10 times or more) before I even tried to do it.... Not sure what mine might turn out like!!! Takes me a bit to get some of the newer crafts.
However, I do LOVE a new challenge.. I will have to get the stuff together first before I even think about trying it. So it will be a while.
OH WELL!!! Something to look forward to.
Stay safe, you do you, and stay crafty 👍👍🛎️🔔🦋🦋
Please show how to make jewelry
Yes please on the jewelry videos.
Wow fantastic great job
❤
I have tried this and got confused and stopped. you have made it logical to me, esp the square one. I can see the logic of the moves! thank you!
This looks fun. I will be trying this xx
Steve, you should try these with jewellery wire, they turn out amazing. I mostly use zari chords give a nice metallic look finish.
❤I bought these a long time ago. I just got them out to learn how, and there you are, spot on with a how to video.
Thank you very much! My friend gave me a large circle one for Christmas. Now I can follow along. Have a great day.
This was great showing how easy it is?? Thank you❤️🙏💯☺️
Thankyou ❤
I love your videos! I think I will have to try this even though the last one intimidates me a little. Try and you shall succeed! Thank you Steve 😊!!!
Think my brain just blew up 🤣😂. One at a time I think. Great video
Hi Steve, Thank you so much for sharing a very Therapeutic art with some really lovely end results very much appreciated 👍❤️
These remind me of the lanyards I used to make for keys and or bracelets.
Mmmm.... Ideas, 💡ideas!
Thanks Steve! I'd love to see how to incorporate beads into kumihimo! Or has that video been made?
Quedo linda bendiciones ❤
I would LOVE to have printable instructions for these. Is that a possibility Steve?
Thank you for this. most people go too fast and it's hard to follow this was great. I would love to see a video on how you make jewelry and I was wondering if you could do the second one again with a 3rd color I'm in the USA red white and blue. thanks again you're videos are amazing😃
The discs are really helpful...doing Kumihimo the traditional way is quite difficult. 🙂

When I was a girl I made bracelets from embroidery thread. They turned out kinda like the first 1 on the square thing. I used a clip board or my toes to hold it 🤣😂🤣😂. My dad was a boy scout leader. They did lots of things with knots n whatnot. I had way more fun with them than I did with my girl scout group
40 yrs ago i was doing this without the forms and moved on to leather. now brain and body not so good i need the forms and a refresher. thanks
Can you use embroidery yarn for this to make it a thinner bracelet, besides I have so much of it ? Thank you .
Thats what I used because I had lots of it. I also had leftover waxed cord from a macrame jewelry project. I think any cord you like works fine.
What material is the string very curious
It looks like rattail, a very smooth and silly synthetic cord, it's very cheap.
Sorry typo, read silky.
Que bonitas pero de ese hilo matizado no hay por acá y la tigri esta chula
No coloca las medidas del total de hilo que utilizo y cuántos Cms queda descontando el sobrante de hilo con el fin de no desperdiciar material
nerede kaldığınızı unutursanız?
I’m lost on the last one
💖💖🙏🙏👍👍💕💕
Looks soooo complicated. I suffer with severe arthritic hands and they shake a lot so I think this will be one craft I’ll give a miss unfortunately as I love trying new crafts
