"okay, now we are getting ready to prepare to make our little spine bones for the fishbone braid. Now since the hairline does not run straight, there is going to be one here kind-of going backwards to feed into the main bone.

So start a little bit back here, maybe a half of an inch and just kind-of separate that out. Okay. And this is my middle. This is what I am using as a guide for my middle. So I am going to go ahead and stop this right here. I am going to tie this off just because the rest of them will not be at this angle. I am going to leave this over here to the side. Now this one is going to come up at an angle as well just because of the hairline the way it goes back and comes back up. I am going to do my best to line it up, but, however, because of how the hairline naturally goes in and out, it is going to be a little bit different. So, we are going to try to get this straight, that way the next fish bones can be straight on their own. Separate that. Check the top one. Looks like I need to fix it a little bit.
