First measure out 20 inches of your base (I chose white) and cut it off at the end. Next Measure 45 inches of your wrap color (pink) and cut it.

Preparation

Take your base and fold it in half so there is a loop at the top. Tape it down on a flat surface. Now take your wrap and place it under the wrap. Place your wrap as high up as possible without going under the tape.

Basic Movements

Take the left strand of your wrap and place it over the left strand of your base. Now take the left strand of your base and put it under your right base strand. Now your 2 wrap strands are parallel. Next take the right wrap strand and place it over the right base strand. Finally put your right wrap strand over your left base strand. Okay now you have your first "eight".

Repeat

Now repeat the basic movements until you have a strand that looks kind of like a fishtail braid that fits your wirst size.

Knots

Now tie a knot around your base strands at the end of your "fishtail". Do this three times. Next you should cut off the excess of your wrap strands.

Button
