Alright put that rubber band shaped like an 8 on the loom! {should take up 2 pegs}

Step 4- Add On!

Add two more STRAIGHT rubber bands {I repeat STRAIGHT} on top of the one shaped like an 8!

Step 5- Lift and Middle

Using your hooker lift the bottom rubber band (shaped like an 8) and bring it up and put it in the middle of the bands and repeat that step for the other side of the rubber band.

Once you have gotten it to the length you want it to be leave the one you just put in the middle and there should be two other rubber bands. It's basically like hooking a double together.
