Tahinopita

Hello,

I wanted to try this recipe here

http://www.howaboutsomegreektonight.com/kypriakitahinopita.php

but I get lost around when he says

~ Take the two ends and swirl them so that a rope-shape is formed about 117 cm long.

I'm not sure how I would do it, one hand pushing forward, one backwards on the surface? But then what about here?

~ Roll the two ends of the rope in the opposite directions to form two snail shells.
