Description 


Instructions 
  1. 1
    Step 1

    First of all, you need to make a template - it should be a rectangle with two wider bits at either side - kind of like a bobbin.

    Draw around this on to thick card.


  2. 2
    Step 2

    Draw out lots of these - it's easier to make lots at once.


  3. 3
    Step 3

    Cut them out.


  4. 4
    Step 4

    Cut a little slit at one of the inside corners.


  5. 5
    Step 5

    Place one end of the floss through the slit and neatly wrap the rest of the floss round the middle of the card.


  6. 6
    Step 6

    When it's all wrapped neatly it should look like this.


  7. 7
    Step 7

    You can then keep each of the threads organzied by colour in a plastic take-out container.
