- In this video I demonstrate how I start and tie a 4 strand round braid. This video was made for my friend Shonda, but you the viewer can learn as well! =)
Edit: Here is a buddy of mine who shows you what you can do on how to end it making a loop, at the end he doesn't show what to do with the ends but at that point you can just snip them burn them and use some super glue to keep them in place. I've never done this so if you wish to follow his directions you're on your own.

Best video on how to braid four strand. Very clear and demonstrated well. THANKS.
You have no idea how aggravated I am trying to do this. Thankfully watching this video made since to me and it clicked. Thank you so much.
Finally someone that can explain it and show it. This was the 6th video I tried and the easiest to follow. Thanks.
I used this method a few days ago then couldn't find it when I wanted it again. After a few frustrating days, I managed to find your tutorial again, brilliant instruction, many thanks
I was having so much trouble with a 4 strand braid till I found this tutorial..... You made this simple....Thanks!
awesome! I'm glad it's helped so many people over the years.
Thank you bro. I watched multiple paracord gurus trying to figure out how to tie this braid on my monkey fist and yours was the only one I could easily follow and finally get it f’ing done!
much easier than the other video somebody else posted. I spent over 2 hours trying to figure out the other guys method and you made it so much simpler Thanks. The other guys video would have been better if he actually talked instead of playing music Thanks again
I have to thank you for this video... I've been using it to do several knife lanyards, using 550 paracord, usually with the inner core strings removed, depending on the knife... I plan on using this 4-strand round braid to also do a walking stick wrist strap, once I finish up my knives... I'm brand new to paracord braiding, and your video was very helpful... hardest part is getting started with just a loop that I secure in a small table vise... would love to see your finishing knots ! THANKS!!!
That was very helpful. Thank you. I am a stroke survivor and I have a language disability. Your video is one of the best and easiest that I have watched.
I'm glad my video helped you and thank you for the kind words. sorry to hear about the stroke those are tough to live with after.
Thank you very much for this tutorial, it help me a lot, now I'm working with suede and making beautiful bracelets. This is the best tutorial I found.
i looked all over for a video on doing this! yours showed how AND explained how very well! perfect! thanks for sharing!!!
Thank you! I've watched several videos and yours made compete sense from the get go while the others left me frustrated! I could very easily see and understand where each strand went. Thank you thank you!
best video for 4 strand round braid. easy and simple best methode I found so far thanks for sharing.
np Francesco. Glad it helped out!
Thank you - solved my problem with keeping braid even. Easier than the easy way!
yes. this is much easier than the easy way. only have to worry about one strand at a time.
finally found someone that can explain this clearly! thanks!
Glad you stuck with it and that my video helped. Sorry for the late reply but i've been busy moving!! Thanks again!
Yo... You the Man. I managed to Integrate this braid around a core using multiple stands. Looks sick.
No, you da man! =) Glad it worked out!
Hey JJig you on FB?
I am. I had a Paracord page, but I've since shut it off. I see you made a getback whip for your bike, looks good! If you want to make a sick get back whip learn the 8 cord Gaucho Braid. It looks amazing and makes a really, and i mean REALLY good thing to whip people if they deserve it. I use it on my dog leads.
+JJiG Ive heard of that Braid. I may tackle that one next.
i watched four other tutorials on youtube and this was the first one that made sense! thanks :)
you're welcome!! Keep tying!
thank you I have watched so many videos on how to do this yours is the BEST.....I DID IT ...thanks again
I like that braid. Will have to try it. Thanks.
I watched lots of other videos and could not get the hang of it but this helped a lot thanks
glad you found the video helpful!! Thanks for watching!
it was done with psracord. you can do it with yarn but depending on the type you won't really get the same effect because it won't be as bulky
It doesn't matter the age of the person the necklace is going on, it depends on what fits them. And its always going to be 2 strands folded in the middle to give you 4 strands. Hence 4 strand round braid.
Good for braiding a 4 wire power lead for RC vehicles that have high current draw servos where a single power connector from the receiver battery isn't enough (servo connectors are only good for around 5 amps or so). In this case you want the braid fairly loose rather than tight.
Brilliant tutorial - thanks so much. I was struggling try to learn off other peoples examples. Thanks :-)
glad to be able to help!
Nicely done thanks the best ever I was about to give up you are the best...thanks again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kimberly this braid can be used in a bunch of different applications. I do have other videos on my channel showing you how to end it for a necklace. I also use this in my dog leashes as well. It all depends what application you want to use it on! Be creative and explore all the different possibilities! Thanks for watching!
Thank you buddy (JJig). I was curious, I am actually building your model for the 4 string rope for a handle on my drums. How do I end the rope. What I am doing is simply drilling 2 holes in a box to put the handle there. I just need some sort of stopper or knot that will hold it in place. perhaps a wood dowel will work?
It's quite easy to do, all u need to do is tie your braid as long as u want, and then tie a diamond knot at the end to get your tassle. Look at my videos to learn how to make a diamond knot.
Hey no problem. =) I have others as well.
I'm really not planning on making a video about that, what type of closure are you using? A Barrel type like in my other video? If you check my channel you'll see a video showing how to do it around a core. If its that type of closer w/ a core it would come out much better. a little thicker but better and easier to end.
OMG THANKYOU NOW I CAN MAKE A NECKLACE!!!!
I love the video. Being a newbie I didn't know how to secure the buckle on the end. Do you have a video showing how to finish it or can you direct me to a good tutorial? Thanks
what do you need to make this and can you make them with thread? thanks!
Hey Matt I got the buckle from a website called buckle runner, i posted it somewhere in a previous comment I think. But they are the Phiten buckles there, pretty cheap, and if you watch my newest video it will show you how to end one as well.
If I make another video it will be better, but just watch it again. There isn't much really see, i've asked lots of people and they can seem to follow it just fine. As for buckles I am using Phiten buckles that I got from bucklerunner there is no size for it, just 1 size and its all 550 paracord that I use in all my videos.
How to you end it cleanly though to the other end of the buckle to turn it into a bracelet or necklace?
Cool thank you. But is there a way to to end it on the buckle without having the core strand?
Can you tell me what size paracord this is? It seems like there are more than one size. thanks!
You can use anything to make the braid, but if you're going to use thread you will need to use alot so its thick.. I'm not quite sure what thread you're using tho but I have seen people use some in other videos. but I use paracord, but any rope will work fine.
Can you tell us how to attach the other end of the buckle?
Yep!
Can you please post a video on how you end the tying on the other end of the clip please, id like to make a necklace but I'm stumped on how to end it and tie to the other end of my breakaway clip!
@freewillyism it depends on what you're doing with it. but I have another video on how to end it with a buckle.
Thankyou! so........ much great technique and instruction.
You're so welcome!! Glad I was able to help!
where did you find the clips??
Video is up showing how to end it using a buckle!!
How long do u make ur paracord for a necklace
Excuse me, one question. What material did you use when you braided the 4 strand round braid? What type of string is it? Can you do it with yarn?
this was a great video but i wished you showed HOW to end it ? i'm rather new to this and would love to make one ...
@cp32773 I just made a new video on 1 way how to end it on a buckle. It's going to be uploaded in a bit so be on the lookout for it!
You're welcome!
very good, i understood it rightaway
np glad I could help!! Sorry for such a late reply!
Where can I find the directions on how to finish this?
This video really just demonstrates the tying technique. You're really better off tying this around a core. I have another video for that, but the best way i've seen is to sew the ends together and then use a small decorative knot to cover the ends.
on my other video I just use a single strand of 550 cord as the core with a barrel buckle. slide it through one end tie a knot and repeat for the other side and there is your core with the buckles and all that is left is to tie the 4 strand braid.
I'm your new subscriber. I was wondering could you make a tutorial on how to make strand round braid that has a tassel at the end or buttom of it. I would love see a tutorial that. thanks!
how much string do you need for a thirteen year old and how many strands?
I usually go 3x the length of the necklace u want to tie. So say a 2" necklace I would use 6 feet of cord per color.
Thank you!!!
jjig, everything was super simple and well explained but at 2:51 you show the weave for the last time...with all four ends just hanging loose. I think what crayzi was asking is how do you finish/end it? does each strand get tucked in someplace?
It can be finished in lots of ways, this video is just to show you how to tie the braid. It's hard for me to explain because I don't have a video showing other ways to handle it, if I can find a good video elsewhere i'll update the description with a video showing a way to end it as a dog leash, which is why i made this video.
i updated the description. if you want a better way to do it i can link you to an article i wrote on a facebook paracord group that will go in great detail on how to make a dog leash.
this is standard 550 cord. 5/32" I wanna say, but im not entirely sure.
@ekidoo I just made a new video on 1 way how to end it on a buckle. It's going to be uploaded in a bit so be on the lookout for it!
thank you very much!
How do you attach the braid to the clip to finish the necklace?
i just made a knot and burned it it worked well
+Liz Capalingo knot*
Thank you
Hmm I thought I added a video response on how to end this using a buckle.. And its not showing up.
thanks
Thanks alot :)
Thanks :)
thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am making a lead rope for my horse and I want to know how to finish it but not in the way that the video in the description is, just like straight
Google The Buckle Runner.
Okay, so let me get this right. you just want a 4 strand round braid, not as a bracelet or anything and u want it to have a tassle with 2 or 4 strands?
(I gave u a like
Thats nice how the fu k do.i end it on the other sideee
this was never a video on how to finish it, it was a video on how to do the technique.
FAIL!... 1. Beginning 2. Sequence to desired length 3. ...oh, wait... Great keychain, only it keeps unraveling every other day. Don't you think you could have ended it with how to tie the closing knot?
Burn the ends and melt the end pieces together. Be careful not to burn yourself. Makes for a very clean finish and the ends will never unravel. Good luck.
really out of focus hurts my eyes
This doesn't help
I love the video. Being a newbie I didn't know how to secure the buckle on the end. Do you have a video showing how to finish it or can you direct me to a good tutorial? Thanks
Video is up showing how to end it using a buckle!!
@BigE5620 I just made a new video on 1 way how to end it on a buckle. It's going to be uploaded in a bit so be on the lookout for it!
