This part is relatively easy if you have ever played around with rubber bands and made bracelets ect.

To form the first ear loop, fold the first rubber band around a side of the yarn loop, while inserting one side of the rubber band into itself on the opposing ends loop.

After the end of the rubber band has been pulled through, keep hold of the rubber band while pulling the end of the yarn loop tight to make sure it is secure.

With the 2nd rubber band, repeat the same procedure on the opposing side of the yarn loop, Forming the 2nd ear loop.
