DAY 21:
Paper Weaving
Fold a piece of paper or card in half and cut lines from the centre towards the edge, stopping before you reach the edge. Unfold it and lay it flat. Take strips of paper, ribbons or fabric and pass them over and under from one side to the other. You can add as many rows as you like. What else can you find to weave through?
