long. Tie a loop in the end of your thread with a short tail of 3-4 inches, and
a long tail of a dozen plus inches. Hold the loop, wrap the long tail around
the felt, thread it through the loop and pull it tight. Continue wrapping the
long tail around the hammer in the opposite direction while holding onto the
short tail. When you run out of thread from making wraps, tie it off with the
short tail. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
