Steps
2
Create the Weaving Structure
Take the second plate and make a series of quick, straight snips (about 1-2 inches deep, an inch apart) around the curved edge. This simple step creates the perfect framework for weaving.
3
Start the Color Fun (Red)
Secure one end of the red yarn to the back of a semi-circle base with tape (optional). Show your child how to weave it over and under the fringes of the other plate. With this easy start, their creativity will flow!
4
Continue the Colorful Pattern (Orange)
Offer the orange yarn and encourage them to weave the next row just below the red. The intuitive over-and-under motion makes this step easy for them to grasp.
5
Guide Through the Rainbow (Yellow to Purple)
Provide the remaining colors in sequence. The visual progress of the rainbow makes it easy and exciting for your child to continue.
6
Complete Their Masterpiece
Once they've woven all the colors, a quick trim of any long ends is all that’s needed. Add a yarn loop if they wish to display their artwork proudly.
