KAKU YATSU BRAID. This 12-page information-packed tutorial teaches you everything about braiding the Kaku Yatsu braid on a Foam Disk (although there is alot of useful info for the marudai braider as well).  It doesn't just tell you how to make the braid but goes to greater lengths to provide a well-rounded understanding of the braid. Included in this tutorial are braiding sequence diagrams, point of braiding explanations, tips on reading the braid and suggested color patterns for a variety of braids. Once you have a command of this braid, you will be ready to add it to your repertoire of braids.  Since this is a pattern only, it is up to the maker to choose their own components.
