Once hoop is covered follow image instructions A-D to make the dream catcher netting.
Make a simple knot by the center top of your hoop. Use a darning needle to wind the embroidery thread around your hoop evenly spaced out. Image A illustrates the direction in which you should be winding your thread. Please continue this pattern until you have a total of 12 loops on outer edge of hoop. Please note you are able to make more or less loops depending on the desired look.

Repeat this step until you reach the center.
*When desired look is achieved tie a knot and cut excess thread.
