Twelve-strand Kumihimo braid with a triangular cross-section. Can be done with other numbers of strands, so long as one can divide them into three roughly equal groups.

Twelve-strand Kumihimo braid which gives a textured spiral, where one set of warps creates a bump of texture. The warps are grouped in six groups of two warps; those six groups make two sets of warps, alternating with each other. The pattern goes (a) pick up the most-anti-clockwise of the current group of blue warps, go clockwise over the next group of green warps, and the next group of blue warps; (b) repeat from (a) twice more; (c) pick up the most clockwise of the next group of green warps, go clockwise over the next group of blue warps; (d) repeat from (c) twice more. And then start again from (a).
