Alternately string 10x R10 and 1x R8. Thread the line back through 8x R1. Thread the line through the 9th R10 from the side. String 1x R10. A circle of 4x R10 will form in the middle.

Grasp the ends of the wire between the points of the needle nose pliers. Twist it around the points. Close the eye. Gently twist the wire back along the edge of the IP. The eye will be centrally placed above the IP hole.

The pendant

Cut off about 15 cm of thread. Pull both ends through the hole in the middle of the antlers. Pull on the ends. A loop will be created on the other end. Thread the end of the cord into it.
