Finishing:
Cut your ribbon in half and be sure the ends won't fray (stick them near a flame to melt the ends, depending on the ribbon - but be careful!). Weave the ribbon through at one-inch intervals starting approx. 12 inches from one end. Using a needle and thread, arrange one end of the ribbon into a bow and sew a button on top of it, making sure you are sewing it to at least two strands of yarn at the edge of your wrap. Repeat on the other side of the wrap pulling the ribbon so it is bunched as much as you would like. Repeat for opposite end.
