Tassel

Cut pieces of cardboard about 3″ (7.5 cm) wide and as tall as you want your finished tassel to be. Wind a strand of yarn around the cardboard about 20 times. Cut an 18″ (45.5 cm) length of yarn and insert it under all of the strands at the top of the cardboard (Figure 1); pull up tightly and tie securely. Leave long enough yarn ends to attach the tassel. Cut the yarn at the opposite end of the cardboard (Figure 2) and then remove the cardboard. Wrap another length of yarn tightly around the tassel, 1/2″ (1.25 cm) below the top (Figure 3) and tie securely. Trim the ends of the tassel.
