10 Fun and Easy Yarn Crafts
I love using different materials for crafts, it keeps things interesting and fun. One material that I don’t reach for often is yarn, so I reached out to some fellow bloggers for inspiration and came up with this list of 10 Fun and Easy Yarn Crafts. Since it’s summer holidays for us, the girls and I will be working our way down the list. We might throw in a beaded craft like these Beaded Wind Chimes here and there, but I’m excited to start working with yarn!
There are so many colours to choose from and if you’re an avid follower of our blog, you’ll know that I love to mix and match different colours to create festive pieces or I’ll have the girls pic their own colours to make the craft their own. Many of these yarn craft ideas can be altered to your favourite colour easily, use what you have or buy something new! You can also use festive themes too, think orange and yellow for fall or bright colours for summer.
