Step 3: Knotting Around Your Base.

Now you are just tying the classic cobra knot system around your base. If you are not familiar with classic cobra, you can just follow the pictures. You are just tying that knot but each time you are switching sides. If you started with your left cord, you would start the next with your right.

If you want you can melt the ends of your cords with a lighter. Only do this if you know how.
