​Steps: 
  1. Take your supplies out of the envelope and find your white warping thread. 
  2. If you’d like to decorate your llama and add all of the features you want your llama to have, do this now. Think about eyes, ears, fur, etc. Remember that the middle of the llama will be filled with your weaving. 
  3. String your warp threads. 
    • Tape one end of a piece of yarn to the back of your llama. 
    • Then, go up and down around your llama until all of slits are filled with yarn. 
    • Tape the end of your yarn to the back.

  1. Choose which yarn color you want to start with and tie one end to your warp (top of the right string.​
  2. Go over and under each warp thread. When you reach the end of one row, do the opposite pattern of over/under for the next row. 
  3. Keep alternating until you are done with your piece of yarn or if you’d like to change colors. 
  4. To add another piece of yarn, tie on your new piece of yarn to your old piece of yarn. 
  5. Keep weaving! 
  6. When finished weaving, tie the end of your yard to your warp. 
  7. Add pom poms and more sequins if desired!
