Tape each end of the cardboard to the yarn to temporarily secure. Wrap the cardboard 72 times around the 3 1/2 width; cut yarn. Un-tape 12 piece of yarn and knot tightly around the yarn wraps. Cut the yarn wraps on the opposite side of the 12 piece of yarn to release tassel from cardboard. Wrap yarn several times around tassel about 1 below top; tie tightly. Trim ends of tassel.
