Soirée is a kumihimo kit for competent braiders. It is not difficult, but it does require working with very small beads and paying very close attention to details.
Previous experience with the basic round braid (kongoh gumi) on the foam disk is required. If it has been awhile since your last beaded kumihimo project (or if this is your first time with one of my projects), please review our Beaded Kumihimo Starter Guide and Understanding the Braid before beginning your necklace.
