Step 2
Step reserved for adults: make 10 small cuts spaced about 1 cm apart: 5 at the belly and 5 at the back of the llama.
Step 3
Cut a piece of wool about one meter long and then wedge the end into the first notch at the top.
Thread a bead and then wedge the piece of wool into the first notch at the bottom.
Repeat the process on all the notches to create the weaving base.
Step 4
This is an overview of the weaving base at this step.
Step 5
Cut a piece of colored wool about 1.5 meters long and then attach one end to a plastic needle.
Step 6
Weave using the plastic needle by passing it once over and once under the central threads.
This will recreate the colored blanket that is placed on the backs of the llamas.
Step 7
Once the weaving is finished, trace the contours of the llama with a black marker.
Step 8
Draw the ears and mouth of the llama and then stick on 2 adhesive eyes.
Step 9
Glue colored adhesive lace on each side of the weaving.
Step 10
Drill 2 holes in the cardboard at the level of the llama's neck.
Step 11
Thread 2 or 3 colored pom-poms onto a piece of wool yarn, then pass the 2 ends of the yarn through the holes using the plastic needle.
Tie a double knot to secure everything.
Step 12
Draw the lama's fur with a black marker.

Très joli !
Ma fille de 5 ans a adoré, il a fallu l'aider un peu, selon les étapes, mais elle a pris beaucoup de plaisir à décorer son lama, choisir les matières, les couleurs... du pur bonheur ! Et quel résultat ! Formidable !
Très amusant
Ma petite-fille de 7 ans et moi avons passé un bon moment à fabriquer ce charmant lama. Merci pour cette bonne idée.
Super
Activité faite avec ma fille.de.6 ans : elle a adoré !
J'ai adoré faire cette création dans un centre aéré. Les enfants ont adoré, par contre trop difficile le tissage en laine pour les jeunes enfants. Vraiment j'ai adoré et le rendu est sublime. J'ai posté une image de ma création pour vous donner un aperçu de ce que j'ai proposé ??
