These socks are almost done! Do you think I can finish them in time for Stitch N Bitch tonight?
Eunny was talking about her hair the other day, and suddenly I remembered that I used to be really good at braids!
Not bad after...um, not sure how many years. I think that this joined, inverted double french braid is called a Princess Anne. In the days of yore, I used to do all kinds of fancy braids for my sister Hannah, friend Sarcy and myself; french ropes, inverted french braids, regular ones. We were the best "haired" out of them all, I must say. I learned how to braid all sorts of cool ways in the Klutz Press book "Braids and Bows". If I ever have a little girl, I will totally buy this book again. Or if I decide to grow my hair out again.
Speaking of hair, I am getting my hair cut and maybe colored in the next week or so. I am undecided if I should go short again or keep it long...what color...arrgg. If you have suggestions, please let me know! I'm not above stealing someone else's idea. =)

How did you accomplish this? I've been searching and searching for directions on how to do a " joined, inverted double french braid" but cannot find anything. I really don't know a lot about braiding hair, but I do jui jitsu(like wrestling) and I think this hair style would be perfect. It looks very secure.
It's hard to explain without showing it to you in person, but here's a
Google searchthat
I just did for tutorials, and there are some YouTube videos. One of
them is for a double french braid, another is for an inverted french braid,
so you should be able to cobble the two together to get what you need. Good
luck!
