Yarn: You can use any type or weight of yarn, as the instructions are universally adaptable. Choose one or more colors of your choice, for example, a natural sage green for the main body and a contrasting white for decoratively wrapping the head.

Optional for the second variant: A small carabiner hook with an integrated eyelet ring, for example in elegant gold, if you wish to make the tassel as a flexible bag charm or keychain.
