<<< Picture one shows you that the major outer perimeter holes are designated with letters A, B, C and D, with the inner gold cord loop facing you .
Start by taking the gold loop and inserting it through hole 'A' and behind the white perimeter cord .
Work the gold loop down towards the white perimeter cord's end fixture . . . . .
. . . . . around its end, and settling in front of the white perimeter cord, and thread it back up through the hole .
Now you have placed a part of the inner gold cord outside of the first perimeter cord at hole 'A' .
Start threading the gold loop through hole 'B', again behind the white perimeter cord .
Again draw the loop down towards the white perimeter cord end fixture . . . . .
. . . . . and around to the front of (outside) the white perimeter cord, and up through the hole to the platform's topside .
Now the entire gold loop has completely surrounded both white perimeter cords at holes 'A' and 'B' on the outside .
We now start again -- threading the gold loop through hole 'C' -- this time, from the front (outside) of the white perimeter cord !
Again pull the gold loop down towards the end fixture . . . . .
. . . . . and behind the white perimeter cord .
note: the actions on this side of the puzzle are just reversed from the first side . (inside > outside) (outside > inside)
Almost there ! You've now released the gold loop from perimeter hole 'C' .
For the last time, thread the gold loop through hole 'D', in front of the white perimeter cord . . . . .
. . . . . and pull the gold loop down towards the end fixture, and around its end . . . . .
. . . . . towards the back (inside) of the white perimeter cord . . . . .
. . . . . and up through the hole -- to the platform's topside .
The gold loop is now free of all the white perimeter cords !
