At the beginning stick the toohtpicks according to the pattern at the Styrofoam.

Then try to separate the yarn, it usually consists of 5 thinner yarns.

Take the first thread and dip it in the glue, continue to knit the tree from the outside and then the inside.

*You can watch the procedure in video*

I used 3 yards of 1m

Wait for the yarns to dry so that the toothpicks peel off

the same procedure follows (as step 1)
A few tips:

  • Use the whole yarn (don´t seperate it) for a stronger frame
  • Use a needle to fill the inside of the tree
  • Add more toothpicks to make the frame stabil
