I’ve been busy working on setting up a project for my sons 1st grade class! It’s an easy “knitting” project that is perfect for elementary age kids. With a cardboard roll, tape, and popsicle sticks, you can set up a simple loom. Then just like you would finger weave, you wrap the yarn around the tops of the sticks and you can create a fun and easy knitted snake! Make it as long or short as you’d like. A long snake would make a cute cowl!
Materials:
– Cardboard Roll (empty toilet paper or paper towel roll)
– Red Heart Super Saver variegated yarn.
– Popsicle sticks
– Masking tape
Directions:
1. Tape 5 popsicle sticks evenly around toilet paper roll. The sticks are supposed to be about a half inch or so over the tube. Make sure you loop the tape around several times in two spots so it’s secure.
2. Send end of yarn through tube. Now loop the yarn around the yarn around the top of popsicle sticks. As seen in picture below.
3. To start second round, Take the yarn and just set it over the front of the first popsicle stick above the first loop you made.
4. Take the first loop and pull it over the second strand of yarn and over the top of the popsicle stick.
5. Continue just like that for as many rounds as you’d like! It should start to look like a spider web.
When finished, slip loops off of stick tops and weave yarn through the loops to secure.
A great project for the kids to work on throughout the Fall and Winter! Keep in a baggy and take it on the go for the perfect boredom buster!

You are so creative. I love your ideas and your crochet patterns are amazing. Thank you for all your ideas and for sharing them with us.
That is really very awesome thank a lot for sharing this.
What a SPLENDID idea!!!!! – I will make some with my grand children – THANK YOU 🙂
Reminds me of the knitting tubes we used as children. What a fun idea to share with my 5 year old granddaughter.
This is so great, but it is NOT working in my head (my fault, not yours!). Is there any way you could either make a video showing how this is supposed to work, or direct me to one? I’m sure my daughters would love this!
Same Gina! lol
This isn’t working in my head either. Is the front of the stick on the outside or inside ? Your picture for ‘set the yarn over the front of the first popsicle stick’ appears that it’s on the inside but that doesn’t seem to make sense. Maybe when I actually build this and try it out it will make more sense. I really want to do this with my 6 & 4 year old grandkids!
It’s the outside of the tube/sticks 🙂
If you look at #3, that picture shows holding the yarn on the outside to pull the loop over the yarn
Thanks!!! It was easy, beautiful and super fun to make with my girl.
This a great idea for working with my grandchildren. They LOVE weaving potholders and those rubber band bracelets. But this only requires things that I have around the house all the time! And it is so easy to do. Thanks for the great idea!
Thank you for sharing this idea. I did this project with my girl scout brownie group. They really had fun with it and felt like they created something just like me they are begging me to teach them to crochet.
Am Confused @ no 4, I really. Wanna try dis
Thank you for another wonderful idea!
Try this video – shows the whole process

Thank you so much! My first grader saw this and wanted to try it. He’s now happily zipping right along on his first snake!
Use to have a plastic and wood one, broke both, . I make rugs with them. Love them. Wish I could fine more.
Thanks for the great ideas!
Thank you for another wonderful idea!

May I ask Lois Jones, how she creates rugs with them? Sounds intriguing!
Thank you for this; Last year I managed to achieve my goal of all hand-made Christmas tree decorations & I was looking for something to top it this year. I’m making yards of this to use as “tinsel” from some grey/silver sparkly yarn & it’s looking great. It drapes really well, so I think it’s going to look awesome!
This is one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen!
Do you have a picture of a longer snake made into a cow?
I have never seen before like this
I remember this as a kid. I am curious though, would the knitted tube be bigger if the tube used to create it was bigger?
Ich bin sehr dankbar für diese Website.
I have no idea what you are talking about. In no
I always love cardboard games, btw thanks for sharing this information.
Worst instructions I’ve ever seen
You’re the greatest the ideas your have I wished I had known when I was a scout leader, they could have made them for the Blue and Gold Banquet. as streamers to go around the front table. Thanks again

Nice project 🙂
After reading your guide, I understand that I want to go back to elementary grades, where teachers told me how to make such wonderful crafts. In the second year of university, studies seem so easy and fun no longer. Now we have to write tons of student papers.
OMG! looks lovely

What can be made from wine corks? I have a lot of them and I don’t know where to apply them.
A particularly fun specialty thought, I can hardly wait to attempt it with my young ladies! I’m simply pondering where precisely to paste to buttons? I can’t perceive any buttons in the photos. Much thanks to you!
