to create perfectly straight, parallel lines.
STEP 3: Put your name and # 1 on back of each strip!!

WEAVING INSTRUCTIONS
Using the strips you created and a glue stick, weave your pieces together.
MAKE SURE YOU GLUE THEM TIGHTLY TOGETHER – any spaces between pieces
will create a gap and you will not have room for all of your strips!!!
1. Start by laying the first horizontal piece down on the table –
keep it HORIZONTAL: REMEMBER – SIZE MATTERS!! Your horizontal
strips are not the same length as your vertical strips!
2. Glue your first VERTICAL piece to the front of your HORIZANTAL
piece: REMEMBER – SIZE MATTERS!! Your vertical strips are not
the same length as your horizontal strips!
3. Glue your second VERTICAL piece to the back of your HORIZONTAL
piece:
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have reached the end of your
HORIZONTAL piece.

10. 5. Glue your second HORIZONTAL piece ONLY to the front of your
FIRST VERTICAL piece - just bellow your first HORIZANTAL piece.
6. Weave the second HORIZONTAL piece under/over/under/over/under…
glue in place on the last VERTICAL strip,
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for the remaining strips – remember to
switch to over/under/over/under/over every other strip.

11. 8. When you are finished make sure your name is VISIBLE on the
