Woven wheels on a large scale.
We had a go at making big woven wheels using chopsticks, a hula hoop, some wooden skewers and wool.
The cat enjoyed it as much as we did!
Inspired by this project:

Here’s our original woven flowers post:
Woven Wool Flowers
Hula hoop, chopsticks, wool and scissors.
Mark out a circle with the chopsticks using the hula hoop as a guide.
Take the hula hoop away and start winding wool around the chopsticks.
We added a smaller circle in the middle with wooden skewers.
Keep making patterns, use different coloured wool.
The cat enjoyed this project.
More layering.
