I'm attempting to self-braid this weekend...

[sunshinelady]

I am going to start tonight and try to finish by Sunday night. Any pointers ladies?

1. Should I start in the back or the front?
2. Should I just braid all of them going straight back?
3. Any ways to keep my arms from hurting?

Unless your are doing them thin, it shouldn't take you that long.
I usually make 4 sections and work from front to back. It takes me 4-5 hours to finish if i make them pencil size bsl...oh and i take a break after each section hth
