Rep Row 2 until piece measures about 4 1/2 in. (11.5 cm), end with a WS row as the last row you work. Note: You will now separate the piece into 3 sections that you’ll work one at a time. Next Row (RS): Knit the knits and purl the purls over 4 sts, slip next st. Slip remaining 10 sts onto a holder to be worked later. First Section Continue on the 5 sts on your needle, knitting the knits and purling the purls on each row and slipping the last st, until first section measures about 12 in. (30.5 cm), end with a WS row as the last row you work. Cut yarn and slip these 5 sts onto a holder. Second Section Return 5 sts from the first holder to your needle and rejoin the yarn, ready to work a RS row. Next Row (RS): Knit the knits and purl the purls over 4 sts, slip next st.

Assembly Lay piece onto a flat surface and separate the sections, 1, 2 and 3. Braid the 3 sections together, end with the sections in the same position that they began, 1, 2, 3.
