Step 3 – wrap the thumb x 2
On last slide you see the wrap goes a little higher around the hand first and the from down (front) it goes around the thumb and from this position it starts the 2nd thumb wrap (around the hand and around the thumb same way).
So wrap the hand-thumb 2 times!

Step 9 - Closing
The closing might be on any side of the hand – don’t worry. Usually it should be on the back of it. Put the sticky end under the black loop so that it won’t distract you later.
