More in Mistress katherine’s industrious output, these Award Cords, presented for the categories String Theory, Give What You Get, and Fly The Colours (and Out of Your Comfort Zone)

She says:
Half-a-dozen award cords in baronial colours. This could also count in Out of Your Comfort Zone as I used this to learn how to do four-ply braiding which I’d never done before. Strings are definitely not my thing, but I’ll keep practising the four-ply as I liked the result.

This fingerloop braid was made by Mistress Amalie, and qualifies for the categories The Neck Best Thing and String Theory, as well as Give What You Get, as it is intended as an award cord.

As she has written an informative post for the excellent Lochac Fibre Guild website, it also qualifies for Those Who Can, Also Teach.
This cord comes from the Harley 2330 Manuscript, and is called A Grene Dorge. Further details on the pattern and instructions are available from her post on the Lochac Fibre Guild website here
