I cut pieces of cardboard into circles by drawing around a side plate. I then drew a smaller circle in the centre by drawing around the base of a mug. I cut a slit from the edge of the big circle to the little circle.
I doubled up my by taking and end from the start and centre of the ball and wound it around the cardboard circles. I also started to wind in a very special yarn I've had for years, glow in the dark yarn, yes, that's right glow in the dark yarn!
When I finished I cut in between the two cardboard disks and tied around the ball of fluff with the glow in the dark yarn. I had some spare felt too so used that to cut some eyes, a nose and scary mouth.
And ta da...
Quite the scary monster isn't he?
As soon as the glow in the dark yarn is charged up I'll get a photo of him in the dark.
He was super quick and easy to make, I'm tempted to make lots of small ones for a bunting type effect. Hmm, maybe next year :)
