First Ring
Glue end of F to any point on one closed binder ring.

Apply a small amount of glue to ring at last loop of yarn. Allow glue to dry, then trim yarn ends.

This pattern is great for the younger children (3-5yrs) who want to learn how to do different crafts and for those seniors who are in nursing homes/assisted living facilities for their "money making craft projects". This would be a great start!! I teach crafting/needlework classes to all ages.
I have not made this pattern yet but the directions are quite simple and easy to understand.
