Just Me...

You start with the spine ---___----_____-----____ (pretend this is a curve, then you do the half-heart shape coming back down, going to within about 1/4" of the line, backtracking on the "straight part of the half-heart, until you can roll into the next one....continuing until you have done the whole length of the spine. Then, you tie off and start the other side of the spine.....
