You are now ready to begin making Lanyards!
Set up your wheel by arranging the CraftlaceTM according to Pattern A. Make sure the CraftlaceTM strands stay flat. Once the strands are secure on the wheel you can begin making a lanyard.
1. Start with #32 on top and #16 on the bottom.
2. You will start with the strands on either side of #16 (bottom of wheel).
3. Always start with the bottom left strand.
4. Pull out lace between 16 & 17 go straight across the wheel and insert between 30 & 31. You will now have three strands on top: left, middle and right.
5. Pull out l ace between 1 & 32 and insert across the wheel between 14 & 15.
6. Turn the wheel counterclockwise to the next dot. When you turn the wheel, the top and bottom numbers will change. Dots indicate top and bottom of wheel. With your first turn #8 will be on top, #24 on the bottom.
7. Repeat steps 4-7* until the desired length is reached. *Always bring the furthest left bottom strand UP and across to the top of the wheel and insert it to the left of the two top strands. The top right strand will always come DOWN and across inserted to the right of the bottom strand.
8. When you reach your desired length, remove your lanyard from the wheel. Tie a basic knot on the end of your lanyard and clip the tail to desired length.
