i created the file in affinity
i adjusted the contours with the width tool to get a nice overall picture
then exported everything as SVG and inserted it into XCS
here i made the parts that are cut red and the rest black for easier editing
so you can also select everything right away and set the values

this is advantageous because sometimes i had changed something and all values were gone so you can adjust everything again immediately

take a cord to the loop and put it through the slot from above
then put both ends through the loop and tighten
here you can vary with many colors 
do not pull them too tight so that they look fluffier when knotted
