THEME ACTIVITY: Zipper Pulls with Plastic Lacing

Starter Square Stitch

Learning how to START the Square Stitch goes FAR BEYOND simply being able to do the Square Stitch. This opening stitch is also used to start Circle, Combo, Fishy, Dragonfly, and a BUNCH of other stitches!

Before you begin, you'll need to FIND THE CENTERS of these strands...

For instructions on how to make this stitch, visit the following link: http://www.howtomakescoobies.com/starting4.htm

The Square Stitch

Sometimes referred to as the "Box Stitch", the Square Stitch is the cornerstone of all boondoggling stitches. To start this stitch, you'll need two strands of plastic lacing the same length. With practice, you'll begin to figure out how much square you'll be able to do with any given length of plastic lacing. For myself, I can get about an inch of square out of every 12 to 14 inches of strand.

First, FIND THE CENTERS of these two strands...

 Create a STARTER SQUARE STITCH before continuing...

THEME ACTIVITY: Chain Reaction Popsicle Sticks

Here’s how to build one: http://frugalfun4boys.com/2013/05/13/build-a-chain-reaction-with-popsicle-or-craft-sticks/

We found that wide craft sticks work better than the skinny sticks.
