The Quest to Conquer a Plaited Braid Stitch

Today, I am hunting and practicing the dreaded plaited braid stitch! 

It was pointed out to me that the last picture I posted of the stitch, isn't really the plaited braid stitch : \  Thank you!  From http://www.elizabethancostume.net/, here is a picture of a coif, from the V&A Museum:


I have found some instructionals online, and once the plumber has unclogged my bathtub and empties my checkbook, I am going to play around with the stitch.  I will post pictures and a blog about my experiments later tonight, so stay tuned!
