Making strings can be a lot of fun, so definitely try it out! Or you can subscribe to our monthly strings haha This is a really great thread to start with: [String making introduction mega-thread. New to this craft? Start here!](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/string-making-introduction-mega-thread-new-to-this-craft-start-here/291099) I also made a little animation that should explain things more clearly. Read the thread first and then check the animation out and you should have a pretty good idea of what to do. Let me know if you have any questions! ![String Making Animation](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/c/6/dc63cbe227751697b3460733db1df8300e63d188.gif) --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/how-to-diy-string/370129)._
