Candy skull

A – String 1x R. Pass the needle under the thread between the R. Pass the needle back through the R.
 

B – Sewing the edges of the columns - the beginning. The column is shorter than the previous one. String 2x R. Pass the needle under the thread in the 2^nd gap between the R. Pass the needle through the 2^nd R again. Return to the 1^st R. Pass the needle under the thread in the 1^st gap between the R. Pass the needle through the 1^st R again. Pass the needle under the thread again and secure the 2^nd R. Proceed in the same way if the following column is several R shorter.
 

C – Sewing the edges of the columns - the beginning. If the R protrude in relation to the previous column, string 2x R. Pass the needle under the thread in the 1^st gap between the R. Pass the thread through the 2^nd R again. Straighten the strung R.
 

D – Sewing the edges of the columns – the end. If the R protrude in relation to the previous column, string the last 1x R. Pass the needle under the thread next to the last R from the previous row. Pass the needle through the strung R again and straighten it.
 

E – If the next column is shorter, pass the thread through the outer R of the previous column one more time.

Step 1

Cut off about 1.50 m of thread (an arm's span). Tie the nylon thread to the eye of the needle with one or two knots. String the central column according to the illustration above. Place the strung R in the middle of the thread.

Step 3

Then string the 1^st column to the left of the central column and then to the right according to the illustration.

Step 5

Sew part of the 3^rd column on the left and right-hand sides. Leave 15 – 20 cm free from the diminishing thread for future sewing.

Step 7

Continue sewing the columns according to the illustration: completely for the 4^th to 8^th columns and partially for the 9^th column. Once again leave 15 – 20 cm of the end free. Pass any thread from Step 6 that hasn't been sewn in through several R and cut it off.

Step 9

Sew the second half of the skull (Steps 6 - 8).

Step 11

Tie slip knots. Cutoff about 1.10 m of the cord. Cross the cord over at a length of about 30 to 40 cm. Fold it back about 10 cm from the end of the cord. Fold it again at a distance of about 1.5 - 2 cm from the fold. Start winding around all three strands of cord. Twist it 3x. Thread the ends of the cord through the loop. Pull on the knot behind the part of the cord where you tied the knot. Tighten the knot. Shorten any extending cord to about 1 cm. Tie a knot on the other side in the same way.
