Procedure

Step 1

Prepare the fragments made from CH and T.

The first outer fragment

Thread the line through both holes in 1 CH. Start at the outer hole in the dimple.

String the outer holes of 2 CH, with their dimples facing towards one another.

Pass the line through the second hole of the CH. String 1 T. Pass the line through the second hole in the opposite CH.

Thread the line through the lower hole in both CH.

Thread the line through both holes in the 1 new CH. Start from the middle in the dimple.

Connect it with the lower hole in the first CH. String 1x FPB. Pass the line through the lower hole of the last CH. Tie it off.

Let about 20 cm of wire extend beyond the FPB at one end. Twist a spiral at the end to hold the beads. Use the wire at the other end to coil around the headband wire.

Step 6

Place the strung section on the headband wire. Place it so that it is more or less centred on the headband wire. The empty ends of the headband wire should be the same length.

Step 7
