When Clare, Mum and I went to the craft show back in July we bought some felt balls (I think they came from Sackville and Lane) and the kind people at Dairing gave Clare a length of knitted wool/nylon/alpaca tube.  Finally we’ve turned them into necklaces – what a great school holiday activity!

We had enough of the balls and of the tube to make a necklace each, one for Clare and one for me.

Easy peasy! Push a ball into the tube, tie a knot, push in the next ball, tie a knot, etc. We used 13 balls per necklace.
