How to Make a Perfect Bow:
Step 1
Cut a piece of ribbon 12 inches long, then lay the ribbon across your 2 fingers (forefinger and middle finger), then hold it in place with your thumb, and make sure to leave the end hanging off the left side about 1 to 1.5 inches.
Step 2
Bring the longer end around the back and above your fingers again, then take the loose end, fold it over backward, and feed it under the loops and in between your 2 fingers.

Step 3
Pull it to the back, then bring it up and over the loops, and feed it to the twisted loop on the left tucking it under nicely as shown in the video. Pull the end through tightly, then twist and adjust the ribbon as needed, and carefully slide the ribbon off of your fingers.
Step 4
Give the ribbon a final adjustment, then trim the ribbon’s tail, and you’re done. You can also use a bowmaker instead of your fingers and use the same steps above.
