Free Kumihimo Seed Bead Patterns (5/16/2014)
I recently tried Kumihimo on the foam disk and I loved it. I made 3 necklaces within a week. It was much easier than using a Marudai for the braiding, as I tried several years ago. I see how you can make a lot more kinds of braids on the Marudai, but the disk is so fast and easy, I found it more enjoyable.

Doing kumihimo with beads is totally addicting. If you’re thinking about learning how to do beaded kumihimo, you should know that you will fall head over heels for this easy Japanese braiding technique. You’ll be buying up size 6 seed beads by the kilo. You’ll start dreaming about end caps and cones for finishing your kumihimo braids. And you’ll be thinking about ways to stitch up fancy beaded sliders and accents for these quick and easy beaded ropes that are a great alternative to bead crochet.

Kumihimo is a Japanese form of braid- making. Cords and ribbons are made by interlacing strands. The traditional “tool” is the marudai. It is expensive (relatively) and not portable. The newest “tool” is the foam Kumihimo Disk. It is portable and easy to use. One of our group saw a disk and we were off learning to make Kumihimo braids.

Whether you are looking to combine fiber colors or bead colors, this is a super tool. Take a look at the combinations below that Design Seeds helped me put together for Petite Satin and 6/0 Seed Bead Colors. Imagine…a new color palette, or two, from Design Seeds each day!
