WALT:f create a friendship bracelet by weaving some wool.
SC: I made a friendship bracelet out of wool.
First we had to cut out a circle out of cardboard. Then we choose some wool, I choose green, yellow, white, a velvet colour and I can’t remember what else. Then put the wool through the circle and we had one empty cut and we had to put the third piece of wool into the space. I liked it because it reminded me of my Nana and I when we did knitting. I wonder how long I could of made one it I had longer wool? Have you every weaved anything?
We made a flower broach out of felt with Super Gran. Mine is purple with a green leaf and a white button in the centre. We had to stitch it together and put a pin on the back. I felt really happy making it and a little bit frustrated at times as my hands were sweaty so I kept messing up.
