We don't have a video guide ourselves for specifically V weave patterns. There may well be guides filmed by others available. A video would be of limited use as the process is based around your accuracy and neatness, which is something you cannot really learn from a video but from practice.
As an alternative, what we have seen a lot lately is people experimenting with other fabrics in the join area such as our
