"Hi! I'm Karina Fraley for Expert Village, and we are making our yarn cross now. You're going to start wrapping around. Take the glue off, the excess glue there. Just start wrapping around like this diagonally one way and across that way, and then you're ready to go. Down, all the way around. You don't have to glue all the way down the stick. That's not necessary. If you pull it tight enough, it's going to stay just fine. Go ahead and wrap it. Do wrap it nice and tight though so that you get good coverage all the way down. When you get just about to the bottom, you're going to want to put some more glue, another dot of glue. Then wrap it around. Then you're going to cut it off. You're probably going to need a little bit more glue around to get it to stay. Push it down like that, and then you're going to turn the edge like that. There you have the bottom."
