Yarn Weavings

I do this weaving project each year with the 2nd graders. It is the building block for the CD weavings when they are in 3rd grade…and then finally leading up to stitching their initials on burlap once they are in 4th.

We use large metal embroidery needles. If a student is really struggling with the needle, I just let them use their fingers. The needle comes in handy on those longer looms with more wefts strings.

More photos coming soon…
