How to make

Step 1

Start by wrapping the yellow ball of wool around your piece of cardboard. Keep wrapping around the cardboard 55-60 times.

Step 2

Cut a piece of wool in the same colour about 50cm long. Pass it under the bundle of wool that is wrapped around the card and tie in a tight double knot

Step 3

Turn the piece of cardboard over taking your scissors, cut down the middle and take the wool bundle off the cardboard.

Step 4

With another piece of wool in a contrasting colour, about 50cm long, tie one end around the top of the tassel (about 2cm from the top).

Step 5

Wrap the wool around the top of the tassel bringing your bundle of wool together so you have a nice tight band. Knot and sew the ends back through the band and trim off.
