Weaving on the branches

 

ou can weave itself is a memorial tree for good luck by using a very ancient method of weaving on a branch.

 

For a start during walks in the woods to find a suitable twig. It must be flexible and fairly flat, so that it can be rolled into the ring. If the weave will not immediately leave the twig in wet tissue, so it does not dry. Minimize the need to branch very slowly, gradually, so as not to break. When the ring has turned out, lock the thread.

The junction of branches wrap thread tight and tie series at the end.

Measure the length of the filaments to the basics. Folded in half, it should be slightly larger than the diameter of the ring. Cut the threads of 10-16 pieces. (Even number). And one more – three times longer.

Hang the strings, fixing them hinges on a branch, a short distance.

In the center of the longest thread hang, short – on both sides.

Gather in a bun all short strings. Take a small piece of thread, tie the bundle and tie it to the ground. Threads do not pull much.

Keep all the threads together a little below the center of a circle intercept them a long thread and this thread, do the same trunk, dense rows of turning the beam. At the bottom of this same thread a few times criss-cross tighten the barrel. We got our tree. He already has a trunk, branches and roots. It remains to formalize the crown.

Cut a thick thread, attach the edge of the first branches. Follow the weaving between the branches in staggered rows.

Can not only weave a thread, but ribbons or strips of fabric.

 

When changing the thread or strip, the beginning of the following can be tied to the end of the previous bundle hide on the wrong side. But with a dense braiding is not required.

You can make a flowering tree, flowers fashioned from small bundles of threads and inserting them between the weave.

And you can decorate the tree leaves, cut from tissue.
