TO MAKE UP

Block to size using measurements in the table as a guide. Make a twisted cord for the waist using 2 strands of yarn, each 4 times the width of your cover up. Knot them together at both ends and secure one end while you twist the other until it coils back on itself to create a cord. Knot together at both ends to secure. Thread the cord evenly through Row 2 of the waistband. TASSELS Cut 4 lengths of yarn for each tassel, each 25cm. Attach 1 tassel in each space along the bottom edge of the cover up by folding the lengths in half and hooking the yarn ends through the loop created.
