It’s the start of winter (horef in Hebrew) and a new month! We’re celebrating the new season with a winter yarn tapestry, complete with icicles (yarn strands), snowflakes (circular weavings) and snowballs (pom-poms). This is a festive project for grown-ups and kids alike! Come celebrate winter and make a yarn tapestry with us!
This is a special tutorial to make circular loom weavings to finish our winter yarn tapestry. We used yarn in different textures, thickness and shades of white to make these beautiful weavings. We think they look a little like snowflakes, which is perfect for the arrival of a new season! Come make some with us!
This is a special tutorial to learn how to make fork pom-poms which look just like snowballs for our winter yarn tapestry. This is one of my all time favorite crafts and simple to make for grown-ups and kids alike. So let’s go make some pom-poms!
Baby succulents are especially wonderful to grow in summer with children who love tiny things! We’re growing ours in an adorable “Gina Ktana” (Hebrew for mini garden), complete with a tiny animal friend. This is a wonderfully adaptable project for children and grown-ups alike. So let’s go make a mini garden!
We’re getting ready for a new season and extra sunny days by making favorite summer-time yarn crafts, but with a new twist - like this sun wheel! We made it as a wand to wave high at the sun for the upcoming summer solstice. You’re invited to make one too! We show you all the details in our DIY tutorial!
To welcome the sunniest day of the year, we made summer solstice pom-pom wands. The circle shape of the pom-pom reminds us of the sun, and we selected yarn colors to represent sunny days. You only need a few materials to make your own. So let’s go make a pom-pom wand!
