Description

Instructions

  1. Small floss1 1259941270

    First of all, you need to make a template - it should be a rectangle with two wider bits at either side - kind of like a bobbin. Draw around this on to thick card.

  2. Small floss3 1259941587

    Draw out lots of these - it's easier to make lots at once.

  3. Small floss4 1259941770

    Cut them out.

  4. Small floss2 1259941550

    Cut a little slit at one of the inside corners.

  5. Small floss5 1259941779

    Place one end of the floss through the slit and neatly wrap the rest of the floss round the middle of the card.

    When it's all wrapped neatly it should look like this.

    You can then keep each of the threads organzied by colour in a plastic take-out container.
