Finger Chain Can Cozy: Yarn Craft for Kids (And Adults)
"The Finger Chain Can Cozy is a fun easy craft for kids (and adults!) to make, featuring yarn, recycled containers, and something every generation needs more of – organization! The Finger Chain Can Cozy is perfect for pens, art supplies, or whatever you need storage for. I love the way it actually looks knit, and can be everything from silly to elegant! For this can, we’ve customized it with a set of camping-themed buttons, but you can add whatever special touches you like. This is a wonderful kids craft to make for Father’s Day with yarn and supplies you probably already have on hand. Customize the buttons for dad’s interests! Add a sparkly bit of carry-along thread for something upscale for mom!"
Materials List
- Clean Recycled Can (or any other sturdy container)
- Red Heart Super Saver – any color or weight desired
