ABSTRACT:
A method of making an artistic picture or design with strands of yarn. A flat yieldable substrate has the outline of various elements of a picture or design on a painted background and which may have the colored yarn to be used indicated within each outlined portion. The steps of the method includes cutting a length of yarn of the selected color, doubling the yarn, and piercing the doubled end with a straight pin which is pushed into the substrate at a selected point on design. In one technique, the doubled yarn is loosely twisted and a pin inserted through the two strands about one inch from the point of beginning. The length between the pins is formed into an upstanding loop by pushing the pin into the substrate immediately adjacent the first pin. This process is repeated until the entire area is covered with upstanding loops of yarn thereby forming an interesting texture over the area. The remainder of the areas are then similarly covered with appropriate colors of yarn. In some instances, a second layer may be placed over the first layer using the same or contrasting colored yarn in which a length of the selected color is doubled and pinned to one border of an area. The doubled strands are maintained parallel and pinned to the opposite border creating a straight, doubled strand of yarn across the first layer. This process is continued with parallel doubled strands until the entire area is covered with a second layer. The straight strands give a simulated brush stroke effect. Interesting effects can be achieved by pulling a contrasting lower layer of loops through a second layer; by pinning short pieces of yarn through the first layer and to the substrate and brushing to form a fuzzy effect; by trimming brushed yarn to produce a fur-like effect; and by bordering covered areas with twisted strands of yarn.
