To make Up:
Secure the ends of the wool.
Cut 8 strands of yarn of approximately 45cm in length. Fold each tie in half and attach the centre of the ties to each bottom loop on both ends of the hair band (4 each side). Knot the first two ties together (on one side of the hair band approximately 4 cm from the hair band, leaving the ends hanging free. Repeat with all the other three sets ties. Trim the ends of the ties straight leaving as much length as possible. Then taking the crochet hook or a fine needle, thread 2 beads onto the end of each strand of yarn and knot to secure. Repeat for all 16 strands of thread.

Hints & Tips:

Care must be taken when knitting this pattern to ensure that you are on the correct row. This can be determined by looking at the layout of the rows. Accidentally repeating the same row will result in the hair band leaning in one direction rather than extending straight up.
