Finishing:

Remove the screw that holds the embroidery hoop closed. You will only be using the split ring. Remove the metal loops on each for the screw to thread into by either using a wire cutter or by bending it back and forth until it breaks off. Do this for all spit hoops.

Slide one end of the hoop into the correct sized crochet piece. With needle and matching yarn sew both ends closed. Do this for all hoops. You should have three varying sized crochet covered circles. Again with needle and matching yarn sew the circles together leaving about an inch of yarn between them. Sew a loop at the top and you're ready to hang your mobile.
