Cut 14 pieces of cotton tube yarn, each measuring 275 cm. Double them over and tie them around the stick as illustrated in the photo.

Begin with the two middle doubled-over pieces of cotton tube yarn. Tie a knot consisting of two knots (a reef knot).

Now braid the two next doubled-over pieces of cotton tube yarn on either side a bit further down.

Tie a reef knot in the middle.

Continue like this all the way down and to the right. A total of seven reef knots.

Repeat in the other side (to the left).

Fill in with reef knots in between, creating half a diamond shape.Now tie reef knots and mirror the shape.

Now tie reef knots and mirror the shape. Finish with the reef knot in the middle. Now the diamond shape is complete.

Tie knots on all the ends and trim, making them shortest in the middle and longer towards each side.

Tie a piece of cotton tube yarn onto the two loops on either end of the natural stick.
