A "Nearika" from India
(rhymes with eureka)
Materials:
-
assorted colours of wool
-
approx. 7 cm x 7 cm squares of 1/8" plywood
-
white glue
-
scissors
-
assorted patterns of flowers, butterflies, fish, etc.
Pencil in by hand, or trace a pattern onto the piece of wood. Spread glue
inside the design. With different lengths and colours of wool, begin with
a portion of the pattern and lay the wool on the outside edge of the design
and begin spiraling in to the center. Wool can be cut and other colours
begun anywhere in the design. Make sure the ends are secured with enough
glue.
A hole can be drilled through the wood to allow the craft to hang from
the camp hat.
