Flower bud
Start with a round braid of four strands, all braiding methods are possible, and end the braid with a crown knot. If needed you can add an extra string. Next you make a wall knot around the braid, tighten both knots well. End with a crown knot over two. If your string tends to slip back, apply a drop of glue when tightening. Cut the strings close to the bud.
