A method of producing a decorative generally cylindrical band is provided. This method generally involves arranging a plurality of elongated pliable members such that they equiangularly extend in a radially outward direction from a common center. A first member is then folded over any adjacent members such that the direction in which the first member extends is shifted by approximately THETA + THETA /2 DEG , where THETA is the angle defined between any two adjacent pliable members. The next member is then folded over any adjacent members such that it extends in a direction which is shifted approximately THETA + THETA /2 DEG . This braiding process continues until each of the pliable members except the last has been folded. The last pliable member is then folded over any adjacent members and under the first member such that the last member also extends in a direction which is shifted approximately THETA + THETA /2 DEG . These steps are continued until a desired length of band is attained. Once this length has been attained, free ends of the band can be attached to one another to form a decorative braided fashion item.
