I have a link that shows u how to do it somewhere.... lol. Give me a couple days to find it!

Ever heard of a scoobie? Latest craze over here, like a funny know that looks pretty? Use the base of one of them to make a turks knot, then it has to go underneath and through the middle. U will need tweasers I can tell you, or a tool that will grip. Will look for the link...

This is exactly how I tie mine.
You will find it very handy having a pair of long nosed pliers and a thick needle for tying, straightning and tightning the knot.
I was going to do a step by step with photos but I can not add to the above illustration 8) (Why couldnt I find that one!I had to figure it out for myself!!!)
