Step 3Grommet time
You need to install a grommet on each of your cotton webbing.
First cut a small hole in each end that the grommet can fit into. one way to do this is carefully force the exacto knife through the fabric with your good hand and then slide the exacto knife under one slit and up through the other and cut up. Trim away the rest with scissors.
(If I were to cheat during any step of this process and use my bad arm to steady the fabric, even though I know I shouldn't, it would be to cut these holes with the exacto knife ;-)
Once you have cut the holes, insert your grommets and clamp them with the grommet pliers.
