The tutorial refers to this as a faux chevron cane but when I do a similar pattern I call it a staggered blend – and I stagger the blend so the end appearance is similar but the method quite different – but the end result is pretty. This is a good way of making a multi-colour Skinner blend and of adding interest to a simple plug. The end cane is used in a variety of ways, like the bracelet above, and could be used to make further canes by using it as the petal in a flower cane or as a component in a kaleidoscope cane.
The tutorial is in Russian but here is a Google Translate link as well.
