exactly what I was looking for, nice and simple how to braid. and to the rest of you, if you want complicated there is no shortage of it out there. so don't ruin the simple for us.

Thanks for posting this! I knew braiding had to be simple, but knowing whether to take the right all the way to the left, or to middle, the move middle to right or left always twisted me up a bit, literally.

Its no more simplistic than walking up stairs or how to butter bread, however I agree with Lemonie, a few more pics and show how you use it. The title is misleading, your not tying anything so relable it as how to braid or something

This is basically how to braid, and is really too simple to require an instructable, imo.

mrmath i dont want to be rude but who cares if it is easy some peaple dont know how

In my opinion, I don't think this is enough for an entire Instructable.  Braiding isn't that complicated.  Just my 2 cents.

Yep. It's a just a braid and it's not really making anything.

I have an idea what you're doing, but it needs a little bit more information. The pictures show the action well, but is this a knot or a weave, and what do you use it for?

You take this further like the paracord builds then? How about adding a few more pics, you are showing it very clearly so far as you've got.
