  Step 1

  Draw some basic shapes on a paper with a pencil. I drew circle, square, triangle, oval, arch shape, tear drop, leaf shape, heart and a random shape like amoeba.

• 

  Step 2

  Use a cotton swab to apply glue on the shape. Keep glue inside the traced lines. Apply a small amount of glue on the shape instead of applying glue on the yarn.

• 

  Step 3

  For the circle start gluing the yarn from the center. Slowly and carefully spiral the yarn around to from the circle. When you reach the required size of the circle cut off yarn and press the whole pattern with your finger.

• 

  Step 4

  To make the oval shape start by gluing the yarn vertically along the center line and then glue yarn around that line. Keep gluing towards the outer edge and when you'll reach the edge cut off yarn and you're done!

• 

  Step 5

  Cut 3 pieces of yarn according to the triangles base and sides. Glue the base and sides separately. Now take the yarn bundle and glue yarn to fill the inside of the triangle.

• 

  Step 6

  To make the tear drop pattern start by gluing the outer edge first. Start from the pointy part, glue all around the edge and bring it back to the starting point. Now carefully keep gluing the yarn inside towards the center. When you'll reach the center you can simply cut off the yarn from the bundle.

• 

  Step 7

  The triangle and square are almost the same. Cut 4 pieces of yarn for the 4 sides of the square, glue them separately. And then fill the inside like we did for the triangle.

• 

  Step 8

  For the leaf shape you will need 2 pieces of yarn first for both sides (traced line). Glue the sides first and then use the yarn to fill the center by simply gluing from the outside towards the inside.

• 

  Step 9

  The yarn art of heart shape is like the leaf shape. Measure and cut 2 pieces for the sides, glue them and then glue yarn to fill the inside.

• 

  Step 10

  For the arch shape glue the base first by using a single yarn piece. Then glue the rest as you wish.

• 

  Step 11

  Random shape is easier for yarn art. Start from any side you want (center or outer edge).
  Most importantly don't forget to press the yarn after gluing it.
  Enjoy!
