There are several ways to put the string on your Yo-Yo, here is one.

A yo-yo string is one long string, folded in half, and twisted. The end where the two string meets are tied together to make a loop, eventually used to make a slip knot for your finger. The other end, where the string is folded together is where the yo-yo sits. Untwist the folded end with your fingers in order to separate the two strings. Untwist it large enough that the yo-yo can be placed between the strings, so that a single string sits on the axle of the yo-yo, as shown below. Then simply let the yo-yo string re-twist together. The string is now installed on the yo-yo.

How do you do a long sleeper trick on a yoyo?

Rub candle wax into the string to give you a longer rotation time. Also take some of the string twist out of the string so it has less braking action. Assuming that you're right handed, you get the yoyo spinning as fast as you can, then reach down with your right thumb and index finger to pick the yoyo up about 3 inches from the spinning yoyo itself. Your left hand thumb and index finger will form the bottom of a triangle, while your right hand's middle finger will form the top of the triangle of string. The yoyo is then swung in and ouy of the triangle of string. It takes some practice.
