    Ah, thank you.. he did his tassels nicely.

    About tying: Anyone who was in the US Navy or the Boy Scouts, or knows how to tie a bowline, might remember how to tie a bowline. This type of knot works perfectly for these garter ties.

    and someone mentioned making theirs in two different colors of yarn.. excellent idea!

    Update: I meant clovehitch rather than bowline.. my Navy knowledge has slipped!
