Put the string through either end of the swivel, then cross underneath and go through the loop that is now created. Do not pull it through yet.

Put the loop on the hook through the other swivel hole and put the hook through the loop. Pull it through carefully and get something like a pair of needle nose pliers or cork to pull a little more
Fin-ish! Get It? No? Okay...
