How to satin wrap a tassel head (cover a tassel in fine thread) - the professional way

This video shows how to work the passementerie technique known as "satin wrapping" to cover a hard tassel mould (top/head) in fine thread. I am using a PaperLathe tassel mould in this video, and you can watch how I made this here -    • How to make a PaperLathe Tassel Head / mou...   This method of covering tassel heads has a very long history and ensures that the expensive thread remains primarily on the outside and on show - while keeping the central hole open so that the cord can pass through. I'll also show how to bind the shape with a contrast thread. For the PaperLathe, Total Trimmings Table and other tassel making items, visit our website at https://www.ginabsilkworks.co.uk/gina...
