WALL HANGING

Add texture and colour to your nursery with a woollen wall hanging.

YOU’LL NEED: 1 length 12mm dowel, saw, wool in different colours and thicknesses (we used 8-ply and 12-ply), scissors and jute twine.

1 Cut dowel to 70cm long (or your desired length).

2 Cut 1.2m lengths of wool – you’ll need the equivalent of at least 1 ball of wool.

3 Take 1 length of wool and fold it in half. Hold the looped end of the wool behind the dowel and poke the 2 loose ends through the loop to fasten the wool to the dowel.

4 Repeat with remaining wool, covering the rod except for a gap at either end.

5 Attach jute twine to the ends of the dowel rod and hang.

6 Trim ends to form a chevron shape: start at the middle strand and cut to the left on a slight diagonal. Repeat on right.
