You have finished knitting. Yay
Make two twisted cords
(or use two 30cm ribbons).
Take a 70cm length of wool and secure at one end and twist the opposite end, the longer you twist it tighter it will.
Bring both ends together and tie a knot. The yarn will twist on its self. Witha little coaxing the yarn will lay flat,
Starting at the 4th eyelet, start to thread the cord through 4 ‘pairs’ of eyelets (I used a crochet hook but you can use whatever is easiest for you).STOPPING in the centre. Pull through a tail of appox 3-4 cm.
Fold knitting so that the first three holes on the left hand side are placed over last three holes on the right hand side. Pull cord through both layers,
Continue to thread cord through remaining eyelets.
