Today, I showed Kye how to weave God’s Eyes or Ojo de Dios.
Materials:
1 sosati stick
Some pretty wool
Cut the stick in half, make a cross and wind the wool around the centre few times to secure them.
Wrap the wool around each prodruding stick and then move to the next one, click on the link below for a video I made with Kye when he made his.
I have added a little video here: God’s Eye Weaving
***(Once you have watched the video, close it and click on backspace to return to Creative Friday)***.
Happy weaving, this little project is perfect for small hands and wonderful for hand-eye coordination.

What a lovely idea. I am going to show this to my daughter and see if she will make us some coasters.
I’ve never had my kids make them but I remember making one at summer camp every year. Hmmmm, that might be a great project now that school is out.
Happy Friday! The God’s Eye made with the single ply yarn is my favorite…so soft and decadent looking.
Now THAT takes me back!
Best,
Sheila

If you tilt your head sideways, the one on the right kind of looks like a log cabin quilt. So pretty!
Linda, what beautiful colors! We’ll have to try it 🙂
Oh dear, I couldn’t figure out how to get my avatar on there. Is it fixable? Hope you get a chance to try the Kale salad. It is REALLY GOOD! 😉
Always when I see an Ojo de Dios I think I like to make one…. Love yours!
Love the God’s eye! Thank you for hosting again this week. Lori
