CROWN

Leave at least a 12" tail at the beginning.

Bend the wire ends of the pipe cleaner under by wrapping the end around the pointed end of the tool included with the Knitting Knobby.

Work until tube measures about 1 inch. Insert pipe cleaner into tube, being careful not to push the pipe cleaner end beyond the end of the tube. Continue working until the pipe cleaner is totally covered by the knit tube. Bind off per instructions leaving a 12" tail.

Repeat with second pipe cleaner. Find the center of the tube and bend. This will be the point of the crown. Make two more triangle shapes on either side of the center point. Using an extra piece of yarn and the yarn needle, attach the points to the first tube.

You can use the tails to secure the ends of the points.

Tie knots in the ends of the tails on the first tube.

SCEPTER

Work until tube measures about 1 inch. Insert wooden dowel into tube, being careful not to push the dowel end beyond the end of the tube. Continue working until the dowel is totally covered by the knit tube. Bind off per instructions leaving a 12" tail.

For Star: Leave at least a 12" tail at the beginning.
