"I look back now at all of the tears and years I put into learning that stitch and it really almost makes me laugh, or cry, I am not sure which. This technique has made the difference between me having a wistful dream and actually getting started on that coif. Before it honestly seemed as if the plaited braid alone would take years to accomplish, but not now... Trust me when I tell you that her instructions are literally worth more than their weight in gold!"
