2. Make a zipper pull or a key chain using the four-strand round or square braid.

How to get started on a four-strand round or square braid.

This is an easy project that does not take very much time. To start, you will need: a keyring or other ring/fastener, and two strands of gimp (flat, plastic string), each strand about 3-4 feet long.

Fold each strand in half and thread through the ring/fastener. Then begin braiding.

• Step 1: Cross over two strands that are opposite each other (see illustration).
• Step 2: Thread the cross-strands through: "over 1, under one".
• Step 3: Pull tight

Repeat until the zipper pull or key chain reaches the desired length (4-5 inches).

3. Make a four-strand hanger cover.

How to braid using four strands.

How to do a four-strand braid around a hanger.

5. Know how to start and end all projects.
