Yarn Crafts


I love yarn. There are so many different colors and types that I never tire of it. I keep accumulating it and thought I would check to see if I can find some new craft ideas. Here are some ideas I found. You can buy the letters at AC Moore and Hobby Lobby. I would like ot do BOO for Halloween and JOY for Christmas. 

yarn craft...would be cute in christmas colors ('NOEL', 'JOY', etc.) -or- a black 'BOO' for Halloween

These are so cute. I learned how to make these years ago, but had forgotten all about them.

Octopus for "yarn craft" day

This is a cute idea. You blow up a balloon and cover it with yarn dipped in glue. Once it dries, you pop the balloon and remove it and you have a need little ornament. 

Blow up the balloons. Coat with Vaseline to keep the glue and yarn from sticking to it. Mix 1/2c corn starch, 1/4c warm water, and glue in container. Feed yarn through glue mixture and wrap balloon vertically first, then change directions to make patterns you like. Tie yarn to end of balloon and hang from a broom handle or clothes rod to dry for 24 hours. Pop balloon and remove.

This is a cute little doll. It should be easy to make.

I know how to chain stitch in crochet so I could easily make these.

tangled happy: Yarn Crafting With Kids: Chained Wreath Ornament. OR yarn crafting with Erin! I may try this.

This would be super simple to do.
