Tassels

With bright pink, cut 144 x 5cm pieces of yarn. One section is to be attached to each bright pink edge of the rug, as per the picture.

How to Attach the Tassel

To attach the tassel, hold the piece of yarn in the middle, insert the hook through the st you are attaching to from the back to the front, hook the middle section of yarn, pull through so you have a loop, then pull the tails through the loop and pull lightly to tighten.
