Changing Color and Tapering

These two videos will guide you through making graceful color changes and creating a beautiful finish. The first, Changing Color on the Oval rug, describes where and how to change strand colors so that it is least noticeable. The second, Rat-tailing on the Oval, details the steps to taper, or rat-tail, your braid so that it is a securely held, yet unobtrusive ending. You will be able to complete your rug and enjoy it on your floor for many years!
