Handspun Monogram

October 11, 2016 in Fiber Art, Winter 2016, Ashley Martineau

This was a very simple art yarn project that requires no knitting or crochet experience!  While perusing the craft store for inspiration I found this particleboard letter A in the clearance section for $2. I thought it would be pretty wrapped with handspun art yarn and displayed in my studio.

This is also a great idea for yarn shops and vendors. Wrap the letters Y-A-R-N with handspun yarn to display in your shop or booth. 

For this project I used the "AIR" method yarn from my CORESPUN masterclass. 

MATERIALS

  • 30-50 yards of Bulky Handspun Art Yarn (you may need more or less depending on the size & design of the letter you are wrapping)
  • Alphabet letter from the craft store for wrapping. 

INSTRUCTIONS

I made a slipknot at the top of my wreath to start and then wrapped and wrapped the yarn around the particleboard, covering all the gaps so that it looked dense. I tucked the end under the wrapping to secure. Hang and Enjoy!
