Knitting tools and materials
To crochet a Christmas tree craft, you will need materials and tools that can be found in almost any home:
- threads;
- cardboard - for crafts on the frame;
- filler - for soft toys;
- hook;
- scissors;
- sewing needle;
- beads, sequins, beads, decorative buttons, satin ribbons, bows - for decoration.
Let's take a closer look at each of the items on the list. For knitting toys, you can use both natural andsynthetic threads. Preferred colors: green, blue, white, silver or even gold. For openwork fillet-knitted Christmas trees or using the Irish lace technique, it is better to choose thinner yarn, and for voluminous crafts - “grass” or just thicker threads.
Christmas tree crafts can be flat in the form of an openwork napkin or wall panel, as well as voluminous - soft toys or interior crafts. In the last two cases, you will need thick cardboard for the frame or filler to make them.
As a filler, you can use synthetic winterizer, synthetic winterizer and foam rubber, which are sold in needlework stores. But you can go the other way, using improvised materials - cotton wool, wool, cereals, husks, seeds, fragrant herbs.
Wadding is the cheapest filler, but it should be remembered that after washing, the toy stuffed with it loses its original appearance.
An old wool sweater cut into pieces is also good for stuffing knitted toys. The only disadvantage of such a filler is that moth loves it very much.
Loose fillers are used together with soft fillers or on their own to fill antistress toys. In order for a knitted Christmas tree to turn into a relaxation toy, loose filler must be sewn into a dense fabric bag that repeats the shape of the product.
The Christmas tree filled with fragrant herbs will become a wonderful aromatic sachet, which after the holiday can be hung in the closet so that things smell fragrant all year round. Herbs can be harvestedin the summer on your own or buy at a pharmacy.
The hook and sewing needle must be suitable for the selected yarn, so it is better to carefully study the recommendations indicated on its label. There is only one requirement for scissors - they must be sharp.
A Christmas tree cannot be without decorations. They can be sewn to the finished craft with threads or glued with hot glue.
