-
01
Choose different colour socks for two unique ancient looks. -
02
Cut down the middle, holding onto the toe side end of each sock. -
03
Cut off the excess fabric, so the front and back are the same lengths. -
04
Using a pen or pencil and ruler, outline each unique pattern onto the fabric -
05
Cut out the pattern. -
06
Gather the recycled fabric, scissors, and twine. -
07
Cut a handful of small triangles and glue or stitch them ( using the needle and thread ) onto your first look -
08
Cut enough twine for a belt and two long rectangular fabric strips to wrap around each ankle for the second look. -
09
Glue around each ankle ( or use a needle and thread! ) so they are secure and cut off any excess fabric. -
10
Tie the twine around their tummies as a little belt. -
11
Ensure the garments are dry if you used a glue gun and BAM all done, time to play!
