A lace endented
The only difference between this braid and A broad lace [T2] is that C is taken through two loops rather than one, turning a flat braid into a round cord.
This braid, and A lace bastonne [T6] are color variations of A lace common round [T3]. All three are worked the same way.
Take five loops in two colors, and place them on the following fingers:
Color 1: A C left, and B right
Color 2: B left and C right
Work with the right hand:
A takes through B C right, the loop of C left reversed.
Lower the left loops.
Work with the left hand (in mirror image):
A takes through B C left, the loop of C right reversed.
Lower the right loops.
Repeat from the beginning.
