Wool
Balloon

Method
Make a few lengths of wool and tie a knot in the top. Hang this over a door knob and start your macramé knotting. Make your first knot with wool in pairs a few cm down from the top knot.



A few more cm down knot together the opposite arms of the adjacent knot couple, like a fishing net.



Continue this way for about 5-6 knots down.



Inflate a small sized balloon and place within the macramé netting, end down, securing with a rubber band.



Cut a hole in the cupcake cup and pass through wool and secure with a knot.



Hang up your hot air balloon.
