Weave in yarn ends, wash and block.

Tassels

In addition to the yarn bits you’ll need: beads, a beading needle, and heavy upholstery thread or beading thread (I like using the heavy thread in a matching color).

Cut the yarn long enough to be more than double the final length of the tassel (I used four strands of about 7 inches in each tassel).

String a length of beads about 3.5 inches long, skip the last bead on the strand and bring the beading needle back up through the rest of the beads. Leave two long thread tails at the top. (I made five bead strands for each tassel.)
