Mustache Design Tutorial

1. Pick 2 different colors (the example uses white for the background & brown for the mustache). You will need 3 strands of white and 2 strands of brown.
2. Align string, fold in half, and tie a knot ½ inch from fold forming a loop.
3. Attach your ½ inch loop to MYFBM under the butterfly clip.
4. This pattern has 10 strings. Separate strings by placing one string per slot. Use the same color in slots 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 & 10 (white) and slots 2, 4, 6 & 8 (brown).
