Olive Branch Trim Bands

I've seen what was called Olive Branch Trim Bands in a few pictures. I want to try them on a new build I'm doing but can't find any info on how to do them.
Would anyone know where there might be a tutorial on doing them. I have tried looking around on different sites and searched here but get no info.
Can someone help me out ? Thanks for any help.

Thank You all.
Now to try this on my own wrap.
I think hiding the trim band ends under a light red colored guide wrap will be my next problem.
Would anyone have a copy of Rodmaker magazine Volume 3, issue#1 I looked and the back issue's are sold out.

I also am very interested in this technique, any information will be much appreciated. I'm not all clear in how you wrap one thread around another that doesn't end up being a twist!
