Magazine
Craft Knife
Self Healing Mat
Straight edge
Drop Spindle (I got mine on Ebay for around $12 and it came with a niddy noddy)
Scotch Tape or another clear tape
Masking Tape (optional)
Step 1:
Cut 1/4" strips of your magazine using your craft knife, straight edge, and self healing mat.
Create a start to ply the #magarn. Take 3 magazine strips and stack them on top of each other, but staggered a bit as in the picture. Tape the strips to the drop spindle, then twist the strips between your fingers until you have enough to reach the hook.
Roll the spindle on your leg as you would do for wool or newspaper yarn, leaving about 2" - 3". While pinching the first rolled strips, pick up 3 more strips and stack them as you did the first, then use them to overlap the previous strips. Tape all 6 strips together with a piece of scotch tape, then manually roll the section of scotch tape. Repeat this step until you have as much magarn as you need.
