Thread a bicone bead onto one piece of nylon and thread the other end through the same bead in the opposite direction so that you have a piece of thread coming out of each side of the bead

Add one spacer bead onto each end of nylon, followed by a crimp bead onto one piece of nylon and thread the other end through the same bead in the opposite direction so that you have a piece of thread coming out of each side of the bead (same as you did for the previous bicone bead
