  Step 1: preparations

  1. Take a fairly long strip of ribbon and fold it in half;

  2. Tie an overhand knot, about 15cm from the folded position;

  3. Hold the knot with fingers, next, flip one ribbon end along the diagonal. After that, turn down the other end so that you’ll get an overlapping cross pattern;

  4. Take the nylon wire and needle and sew through them twice to secure in place.
