Very cute, but what do you do with the long string. There's no mention of where you sew. Can anyone help?

adorable idea...could use up scrap yarn and make a ski style cap for the top...just wondering if this might fit a 5 inch "bubble" style craft vase? I could also see this as a jack-o-lantern...endless possibilities!
