To assemble, you will need:
Print out of the template (on cardstock is best. If not, you can glue or cardstock or leave
as is)
Scissors
String (wool or thick string is best) – long enough so you can easily tie a knot (7”-10”)
Needle (with hole big enough to fit the string you are using)
2 buttons (or beads)
Putting it together:
1. Cut out the outside and inside wheels from the template. (Note: if you are gluing to
cardstock, do it first and wait for glue to dry before cutting)
2. Thread needle and string.
3. First sew in the back button.
4. Then, going from the back of the outside wheel, poke the needle through the center
(where the dot is).
5. Next, from the back of the inside wheel, poke the needle through the center (where the
dot is)
6. Then sew in the front button.
7. Now you go backwards. If you have a button, poke the needle through the other hole
first, then continue onto the next step. Otherwise, if you have a bead, just skip this step.
8. With the needle, poke back into the front hole of the inside wheel. Then the front hole of
the outside wheel.
9. You’ll now end up with your needle and thread at the back of your wheel.
10. Finally, poke it through the other button hole (if using a button), or simple tie a firm knot.
The front and back beads/buttons will stop the string from going through.
11. You should now be able to spin the top wheel.
