TWISTED CORDS
Cut one 140” long strand each of A and B. Put strands tog and fold in half. Tie loose ends tog. Holding the knot in your hand, slip the loop over a hook and pull tight. Slip a pencil through the knotted end and twist until cord is so tight that it can’t be twisted further and starts to double back on itself. Pur 1 finger in center of cord and carefully fold in half, letting 2 ends of cord twist tog. Tie both ends of cord in a knot, leaving a 1” end. Cut ends for tassels. Starting at one side of bag, weave cord in an out around bag though holes formed by Row 62. Slip both ends of cord through 1 bead and make a larger knot to keep bead from falling off. Using A and C, make a second cord the same as first and weave through same holes starting and ending at opposite side of bag. Slip on second bead and make knot. This allows bag to be closed by pulling both cords at the same time.
