Yarn Covered Hangers
Too many wire hangers hanging around? Tired of your clothes falling off plastic hangers? Then these yarn-covered hangers are an inexpensive solution! Slippery clothes stay hung up and unlike the wire hangers they are made from these won't damage clothes.
Materials Needed:
- Two matching wire hangers
- Two balls of yarn (remnants work great) in the same or coordinating colors
- Scotch tape
Directions:
- Using a small piece of scotch tape secure the hangers together in three places - at each elbow and middle top just below the twisted section.
- Hold the hangers in place between your knees as you work.
- Tape the ends of the yarn down at the start of the hanger hook and place one ball on each side of the hanger.
- Make a knot by wrapping the ball under the wire and slipping it back through the loop (see photo.)
- Continue making knots alternating sides until all the wire is covered.
- Finish off with a tassle if desired.
