How to make - Tassels
Using a piece of card (I recycled a breakfast cereal box) cut out a retangle the size of the tassel you require with a slot approx. 2.5cm (1inch) down (Photo a.)
Experiment with different sizes for different sized tassels.
Make small snips into the card for holding thread/ yarn. (Photo B. Red lines)
Wind yarn around the card until desired fullness. (Photos D.&E.)

Try wrapping different coloured yarns for multi-coloured tassels also try different textured yarns for interesting effects.
Cut yarn at the bottom of the tassel with a sharp scissors. (Photo H.)

Slide off card

Fluff up tassel. If strands are uneven, just give the tassel a trim.
Using a lenght of yarn place around tassel and tie tightly. knot twice more. (Photo F.)

Using the lenght of yarn you placed in slits, tie around top of tassel. (Photo G.)
