Scoubi keyring tutorial
At last, I’m finally posting the tutorial for how you can make your own very basic scoubi keyring.
I apologize in advance if the pictures aren’t helpful. Hopefully the words will help explain any tricky bits.
Without any further delay, here we go:
Obtain a keyring and two 3-4 feet lengths of scoubi lacing (or gimp). Contrasting colours look quite nice.
Tie one of the lacings around the keyring (here I have tied the red one) and slip the other piece of lacing through, allowing an equal amount of lacing on each side.
Selecting one colour (here I chose red again), making two loops going in opposite directions (one looped toward you, and one away from you) and hold the loops in place with your finger.
Using the end of the second colour on the left hand side, weave this end over the loop to its right, and under the loop furthest away.
Using the end of the second colour on the right hand side, weave this end over the first loop to its left, and under the loop furthest away.
Pull all four ends tight. I usually grab two ends, each of a different colour, and pull, then pull each individually.
Repeat.
And repeat.
When the desired length is reached, make a double knot with each colour. The result is your very own keychain!
