Answer 1

The Eiffel tower is simple, as you already know the teacup.
Make a teacup, bite (gently) the middle of the upper line and pull it up, let go of the thumbs (that where keeping the top line in place.)

If you work with a small loop you might be able to move one thumb to the middle and let go of the other.

And do you know the egg cup?
fold your loop so it is only half the size but two strings and make the teacup.
If your string is long, this will get you a cappuccino cup and you need to fold more for an egg cup.

Answer 3

you may be referring the the game, "cat's cradle."

try googling it. it would be too hard to explain in writing.
