Tassel Tutorial

Have you ever wondered how to make tassels?  Well, I'm going to show you how!

 Step 1: wrap your yarn the desired amount of times around a piece of cardboard.  I wanted my tassles about the length of a credit card width so I used a gift card holder.

 Step 2: once you have the desired amount of wraps ( I used 20 here) pull a piece of yarn under all the wraps at your top

Step 3: tie the yarn you pulled under your wraps

 This is what you should have right now.

Step 4: cut your bottom (opposite where you just tied)

This is what you should have now.

Step 5: tie another piece of yarn a little bit below the top so you form a small ball.

 Step 6: trim you ends even.

Tada!  You made a tassel!
