Fifteen-warp Kumihimo braid. Warps are in ten groups; five groups of two, and five groups of one, alternating. Pattern movements are (a) pick the anti-clocwise-most (left) warp of a group of two, and move it clockwise over to the far side (clocwise-most, right) of the next (clockwise) group of two. (b) repeat for the group-of-two you just moved to, until you get back to the first group. (c) repeat from (a), once. (d) take the next (clockwise) group of one warp, and move it anti-clockwise to the left (anti-clockwise-most) of the next single-warp group. (e) Repeat for the other single-warp groups until you get back to the first one.

Ten-warp Kumihimo braid. Warps are clustered into five groups of two. Pattern movement is to take the anti-clockwise-most (left) warp of a group, and move it clockwise over all the warps of its own group and all the warps of the next-clockwise group, and put it in the clockwise-most (right) position. And then repeat for the group you just moved to. And so on. This braid is suitable for ten colours or five colours (or, as always, one colour).
