Hello, today I'd like to show you how to make a jumping rope for your American
Girl doll.
Okay what you will need to do it is a spool knitter.
You'll need some glue, some yarn
and I used these for the handle but you could also use some sort of bead.
What we're going to do with our spool knitter though is we're going to only
use two
of the pegs. So the first thing you do is you put your yarn in
wrap it around
you wrap it around first peg and back of the second around it
to the front and now we're going to start to make our jump rope. You want to take
the yarn it on the bottom and pass it over the top.
Pull. Wrap this around
the front yarn
yarn over
and pull.
Okay, I'll do a few more so you can see. Yarn around
Up
and over.
Yarn over up
and over.
Ok.
Alright, a few more and then we'll show you
what you have to do after that because I have one thats
already started. You can keep doing this until you have
your cording about 30 inches long.
Let me show you. Here I have one
it's already about 30 inches long.
Now I'll show you how to end it.
Okay your going to take the one yarn that's on the peg
put it over the other one. Take the one that's on the bottom
pass it over the top.
Ok.
There you have it.
Now you'll take
the end of your yarn and pass it through.
Now what I do is I want to make sure that doesn't come apart
so I'm going to put and extra
knot on the end.
And on the other end.
Ok, cut off your threads.
Thread this through your little spool or your bead. Whatever you're going to be
using.
Tie a little knot in the end.
Do the same on the other end.
Now so that the spool does not move take a little glue
and put the glue on it.
And do the same on the other and end with your glue. There you have
your jumping rope for your American Girl doll. If you like this video please
