The kumihimo disc is a wheel 6" in diameter made of a dense foam. It is quite sturdy, since it holds thread (and ribbon) quite firmly without abrading the fiber. Braiders of all levels of experience find this disc a joy to use. You can order the disc alone or in the form of a kit, described below.
The Braiding Disc Kit comes with the 6" foam disc described above, 8 small EZ bobs (for winding yarn), and 8 strands of yarn, each one 1 hard in length. Clearly written instructions in English are given, as well as suggested patterns for sample braids.
