I've never been able to follow instructions for origami like folds or for knots so it's hardly surprising that I had to rip out my first line of stitching for chain braid stitch (TAST challenge). I'd managed to get the thread underneath the needle instead of on top of it and so it was hardly surprising the stitches wouldn't hold together. However eventually I did get the hang of it and I'm glad I persevered as the stitch has a lovely texture and gives good coverage. At least the next stitch looks a bit easier!
