TIPS:
* Cut eight 12" pieces of cord and attach 4 pieces to each side of the donut using a lark’s-head knot.

* Add metal beads to each of the cords and secure with overhand knots before and after each bead.

* Group all of the cords on one side together and make one large overhand knot. Repeat on the other side. Cut all cords except one, securing with adhesive.

* Cover the exposed cord ends with large spacer beads.

* Use a large crimp bead to secure the remaining piece of cording. It is hidden under the bead cap.
