Step-by-Step Guide to Making a Removable Pencil Grip:
3.1 Creating the First Layer:
To start, take a single band and make an "egg" or infinity sign. Then, create another eight bands by looping one band from the first to the second, second to third, and so on. To create the grip, go from left to right, making an eight shape, followed by an "egg," and another eight.
3.2 Adding the Second Layer:
For the second layer, use six bands and press them on top of the first layer. Make sure to create a pattern with two darker colored bands and two lighter colored bands on each side.
3.3 Adding the Third Layer:
Repeat the process with the third layer, using six bands and placing them on top of the second layer.
3.4 Adding the Fourth Layer:
Continue adding layers in the same manner, using six bands for each layer. Make sure to alternate between colors to create an attractive design.
3.5 Adding the Fifth Layer:
As you add the fifth layer, you'll start bringing the bottom two bands over the peg, creating a cross pattern.
3.6 Adding the Sixth Layer:
Continue adding layers and crossing the bands over the peg, alternating between the bottom two bands on each side.
3.7 Adding the Seventh Layer:
Repeat the process for the seventh layer, making sure to follow the cross pattern.
3.8 Adding the Eighth Layer:
As you add the eighth layer, make sure to bring the bottom two bands over the peg and continue following the cross pattern.
3.9 Adding the Final Layer:
For the final layer, use bands in a different color. Follow the same process of adding bands and crossing them over to create a secure grip.

Securing the Grip:
Once you have completed all the layers, separate the top bands and secure them by hooking the bottom bands together. Make sure all the bands are secure before progressing to the next step.
