Step 2

Step 3
Take your 2nd color of embroidery floss and glue the end down on top of the previous colors end. Wrap until you have made this stripe the width you want and secure the end as you did in step 2.
Continue doing steps 2 and 3 until you have about 2 inches of color stripes with your embroidery floss.
Step 4
When you are finished wrapping, take your needle and run the end of your embroidery floss through your wrappings. If you want you can add a small drop of glue to make sure your embroidery floss doesn’t come unwrapped.
