20 Cobra Braid
I really enjoyed the cobra braid bracelet.
I'd seen this braid before, loved it immensely, and tried unsuccessfully to
do it. I found it so beautiful and was disappointed not to be able to
create it. I was pleasantly surprised when I recognized it during the
class. Thank you, Jill, for bringing more beauty into our lives. Can't
wait to find out how to "tie it all up."
