Twist to braid
To make a braid out of a twist: take a blue and a red string,
twist your blue string,
and feed your red string through,
weave it through, one up one down as far as needed,
notice the pink dots, weave the string through at these spots, to the back at the first, back to the front at the next.
Go on till you have done all the length you want your braid to be. Take care to get an even braid, the blue string twisting one way, the red the other.
Hold your braid at both ends and twist both ways to test whether you have done it right.
 
Back to start. one step backwards.
