Tassels

Cut 6, 17 inch strands of yarn in each colour.


Fold three strands of yarn in half and pull the center part way through the sc stitch at the end of each row, so its about an inch through forming a loop, then pull the tail ends of yarn through the loop and tighten.

Repeat this twice for each colour.
