What to Do
- Using your thumb to hold it in place, wrap your first spool of yarn around your hand.
- Cut the end. And add the other color!
- Next, carefully take the yard off your hand and, using your blue string, tie them up in the middle.
- Cut the loops. You got yourself a yarn ball!
- Take your leather strap and sew it to the yarn ball.
- Using another shorter leather strap, sew the feathers to the end.
- Slide the wooden bead over the base of the feathers.
