The new kumihimo findings are available in 3 sizes: 5mm, 7mm, 10mm.  When I started making braids I didn’t realize I would be experimenting with so many different fibers.  I have both thick and thin kumihimo braids…but only bought one size end cap: 10mm.

I figured out a way to make my thinner cords look nice in a slightly bigger cap.

I am gluing some felt along the edges.  This keeps my braid from unraveling too!

Now my thinner cord looks just great in this end cap! It is centered nicely in the cap but you don’t see my felt edging.
