Super Easy: How to Knit a Handmade Scarf — No Crochet Hook Needed! Just a Plastic Bottle and Chopsticks

Many of you might be thinking about giving a scarf as a Christmas present.

But maybe you feel that knitting is too difficult because the bar is high.

Actually, you can make a simple knitting machine using a plastic bottle and chopsticks, and easily knit a scarf! Cut a 2-liter plastic bottle in half and attach 11 wooden chopsticks around the outside with duct tape or similar.

The key is to use an odd number of chopsticks! Hook your favorite yarn over the chopsticks and start knitting; since it’s just repeating the same steps, even children can make it easily.

If you make separate pompoms and tie them to both ends of the scarf, it will look extra cute.

Marble crayon

Many children love drawing, don’t they? A gift I highly recommend is marble crayons.

People often think of marble crayons as something you buy at a store, but you can actually make them by hand.

Since they’re made from old, unwanted crayons, they’re eco-friendly too.

If you gather colors from the same family, you’ll get a gradient-like finish.

Or, if you combine completely different colors, you can create a rainbow effect.

Pay attention to your color combinations so you end up with beautiful marble crayons.

Handmade album

[Handmade Album] Easy! Christmas Pop-up/Interactive Ideas! 5 Types Introduced!

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to give a gift that looks back on the Christmas memories you’ve shared so far, as well as memories from this year? That’s why I recommend a handmade album.

Rather than a book-style album, this is an object made from construction paper where photos appear when you slide a piece.

It makes a striking visual impact and is easy to make original.

Just thinking about what kind of object to create is exciting, isn’t it? If you’re giving it to a child, using a popular character as the motif is a great idea.
