You need a wooden frame like the one
in the picture to do the wollen mat.
Now start winding the wollen yarn . For that tie a knot with the yarn in the nail marked as 1. Starting from 1 wind the thread around i.e) from 1 come to nail ' a ' in the opposite side and then to nail '1'. This is 1 round of winding. Like this do 5 times or 8 times . The more u wind u will get a puffy mat. Zoom the picture to get a clearer image with markings.
Now leave the next nail and start winding the nails '3' and 'c'. Don't cut the thread in between.
After winding one side continue with the other side.
After winding with one color the frame will look like the one in the picture below.
Now the frame will be like the one below.
After winding on both sides u will get intersection points where the
threads crosses each other. Now comes
the time consuming part. I will show u how
to tie the crosses.
Take a thread with 5 cms long.Now bring the thread from the lower part of
the frame to the upper part as shown in the picture below.
Now tie a knot tightly.
Turn the wooden frame. U will see a
'x' mark.
Like this u have to tie all the intersections so that a 'x' is seen in the
opposite side.
