It might sound a bit complicated like that, but don't worry.
Here is an easy-to-follow tutorial in pictures with detailed explanations below:
1. Take a blue ribbon. And wrap it around each tine of the fork, as pictured.
2. When you reach the end of the fork, go around the last tooth and go back the other way.
3. Keep doing this until you have a checkerboard pattern around the fork.
4. Take the orange ribbon and pass it through the center of the fork, between the two center prongs above the blue ribbon.
