And here are written instructions for the French Braid Version of this:
Start with two strands of hair in your right hand, and the other three in your left.
From Right to Left name the strands 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Weave 1 OVER 2, UNDER 3, and OVER 4. Strand 1 is now sitting in Strand 4's position.
Rename the new strands from right to left, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Weave 5 OVER 4, UNDER 3, and OVER 2. Strand 5 will now sit in strand 2's position.
Rename the strands from right to left 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Repeat.
Hair gets added into the braids on the outside strands, which are of course 1 and 5.
