How to do it 
1
Knit the hat with with two strands of yarn (knitting double throughout) following the knitting pattern. Do not cut the yarn when attaching the tassel. Attach another two pieces of yarn, so that there are 6 yarn ends in total. Plait with 3 doubled-over pieces of yarn for approx. 4.5 cm. Tie the ends together in a tight knot.
2
Cut an 8 cm piece of cardboard. Wrap the yarn around it approx. 50 times.
3
Divide the 6 strands of yarn in two and tie tightly around the top of the tassel. Trim the ends at the same length as the other strands of yarn. Turn to hide the knot inside and to hide the end of the plait in the middle at the top.
4
Remove the cardboard. Tie one end of a long piece of yarn around one half of the doubled over 'bundle' of yarn.
5
Wrap the yarn around several times. Tie two knots. Trim the yarn tos the same length as the tassel.
6
Cut the ends open and trim.
