Let's Weave Some Baby Turtles!

What you need:

1. 3 popsicle sticks

2. Green marker or crayon

3. Black marker or crayon

4. Scissors

5. Yarn

6. Tacky glue

Let’s begin: 1. First color 3 Popsicle sticks green with a marker or crayon

2. Then draw on a face and some toes.

3. Then, glue the turtle together like this.

4. Now you are ready to grab your colorful yarn and start weaving. First cut a

piece of yarn really long.

5. Tie on a piece of long yarn. Then, wrap the yarn around our turtle (across

the center), making sure to cover the middle portion. (I think I wrapped it

around 2-3 times each time.)

6. Then, we begin weaving just like you would with a normal two stick God's

eye pattern. We place our yarn over a popsicle stick, wrap it around once,

and then place our yarn over the next popsicle stick, and wrap it

around... and kept repeating that over and around process.

And to change colors, we simply tied on another piece of yarn.

7. Once you finish, turn your turtle over and glue the end of the yarn to the

back. Let that dry.

That’s it
