Difficulty level: Moderate
Time required: 30 minutes
Things you’ll need:
Hemp Twine
Red Striped Tea Towel
Blue Checked Tea Towel
Darning Needle
Scissors
Things to do:
1. Fold your tea towels in half lengthwise. Starting at one end, cut even triangles out of the towel that stretch the height of the (folded) towel. Repeat with the other towel. You should have an equal amount of each.
2. Thread your darning needle with the hemp twine and begin sewing the triangles onto the twine by drawing the needle in through one corner and our through the opposite corner.
3. Continue to add triangles until you have them all threaded on. DO NOT CUT THE TWINE YET.
4. Unravel the twine until it is long enough for each triangle to lay flat with their corners touching and leave 5 inches at each end.
5. Tie a loop at each end and trim away the excess twine.
6. Hang with a slight drape for the best look.
