Weaving snowflakes from rubber bands. How to weave snowflakes from rubber bands for the New Year holidays How to make a snowflake from rubber bands on a machine

Crafts made from colorful rubber bands have captivated many mothers and daughters. Joint needlework gives amazing results in inventing more and more new models.

There are already paintings made from rubber bands, bracelets and rings, key rings and dolls. For beginners who have no idea that you can weave (make) a separate one out of elastic bands.

Many girls give their friends and family homemade gifts that are unique and original.

Isn't it time to prepare gifts for Christmas and New Year already now? What crafts to make from rubber bands for the New Year? These are figures: Santa Claus, Snow Maiden, boot, gift, snowflake, candy cane, Christmas tree, snowman.

Let's look at how to weave a snowflake from rubber bands in different variations. You can decorate your house with these snowflakes, hang them on the Christmas tree, or make them into a keychain or phone. When choosing rubber bands for such a craft, choose:

transparent;
white;
blue;
blue

Here you will learn how to make delicate airy snowflakes from blue, blue and white rubber bands: on your fingers, on a slingshot, on a fork, on a hook and on a machine. They are varied in shape, pattern and size.

Let's start with simple weaving on a crochet hook.

Weaving machines and slingshots are sold in various craft kits. But if you don’t have such a device, it doesn’t matter. Beautiful decoration Christmas tree can be made using a regular crochet hook. The snowflake will turn out delicate and light.

Prepare:

rubber bands (54 blue or gray and 39 blue or white-blue);
hook.

You will need blue and blue. We will make up the central part from the blue ones, and the blue ones will be placed at the edges. First you need to weave six separate elements - rays. You should start from the outside of the part and move towards the center of the snowflake. Let's go through the whole process step by step.

We weave the ends of the snowflake

Manufacturing of a single part. Take a blue elastic band (gray in the photo) (we start weaving from the outer edge), throw it on the hook and wind it in 4 turns.

Then hook 2 blue elastic bands onto the hook and pull them off with your finger.

Throw the elastic band wrapped around the handle of the hook onto a couple of stretched ones. Throw the loop that was held on your finger onto the hook. It's simple! One element is ready.

Slide it onto the hook stick so that it does not interfere with further work.

The second element is done in the same way. We wrap the twist four times on the handle of the hook, pull the double iris and drop the twisted loop onto it. The second element is ready.

We knit the third piece in the same way. We carefully move them all towards the body of the hook, trying not to confuse the elastic bands.

Then we move the blanks onto 2 blue stretched elastic bands. This is the outer end of the snowflake's ray.

We connect the blue loops on the hook. Three blanks are assembled together on one stretch.

Weaving a ray of snowflakes

Now we need to weave the beam itself. We pull two blue elastic bands onto the hook and lower the blue loops to the middle of the stretch, which hold the blue edging of the snowflake. So we increase 2-3 more loops (choose the length of the beam yourself). One part of the snowflake is ready. We need to make 5 more pieces exactly like this.

Collecting a snowflake

The prepared blanks must be assembled into a snowflake. We string all the rays onto the handle of the hook further away, without tangling the elastic bands. We hook two blue elastic bands onto the hook and pull them well. This is a crucial moment. We move all the workpieces onto the stretched elastic bands.
We hook the loop from the finger onto the hook, covering the rays. There were 2 double blue loops on the hook. To close them, take 1 blue elastic band and throw the loops over it. Pass the hook with a single eye and tighten it. You can hide this end inside the middle of the snowflake by dragging it with a crochet hook through the loops.

In this photo you will see that the size of the resulting snowflake is 5 cm by 5 cm, it is quite large, just what you need for Christmas tree decorations or gifts.

We weave a snowflake holder

You can tie a chain of single elastic bands to the remaining part of the loop. It is necessary to hang a snowflake on a Christmas tree or hook it onto a keychain carabiner. A blue or blue keychain would look better blue color. You need to thread a loop through the hole and secure it with a hook.
The elegant snowflake is ready.

Video with detailed step by step diagram and explanations of how to weave an elastic band from elastic bands without a machine on a hook.

Do you want to make it bigger?

To do this, the rays need to be made longer, and the parts for the craft must be woven not six, but eight. In the chain on the beams, combine blue and light blue elastic bands, and add white. In this case, it will turn out more interesting and sophisticated.

For those who have mastered this elastic weaving, we suggest making it unusual. Tie 3 long rays and 3 short ones, place the snowflake on the table to get symmetrical rays.

Look, do you like this version of the snowflake better? Then collect it on a separate rubber band.

Flat figurine of a snowflake on a hook

Original airy snowflakes can become both a decoration and a gift. Putting hooks on each of the snowflakes will turn them into earrings.

We will weave an 8-rayed snowflake. Please note that 4 rays are short and 4 are long. They are placed alternately to make the snowflake symmetrical.
What you will need:

elastic bands: white-96, blue-24.
hook.

Let's analyze the short and long rays separately and step by step, and step by step photos will help those who want to learn from photography.

Long ray - 13 rubber bands (3 blue, 10 white).

2 white ones - we stretch them through the blue ones.

2 white ones, pull through all the loops.

Short beam - 11 elastic bands (3 blue, 8 white).

1 blue elastic - 4 turns around the hook.
2 blue ones - remove 4 turns from 2 elastic bands or pull them through the turns.
4 white ones, we stretch 2 white rubber bands into each loop. There are 4 loops left on the hook.
2 white ones, pull through all the loops.
2 white ones, pull through all the loops.

Photo of short and long rays
We collect a snowflake using 2 white rubber bands, stretching it through all 8 rays, making sure that long and short ones alternate.

We thread the last loop into the previous one so that you get 1 loop on the hook (but with two elastic bands).

Holder

We pass 1 white elastic band through the loop and tighten it to create a holder that will not unravel. It’s easy to hide the holder if necessary; pull the remaining loop through the rays so that the holder remains inside.

Repeat after the video tutorial to get the same white and blue delicate snowflake.

We turn a snowflake into a bracelet or necklace

When the snowflake is woven into the holder, we braid the bracelet or necklace with a French braid or other wide pattern. You can do this either on your fingers or on a machine, on a slingshot. Watch and read in this Video how to make a bracelet on a hook from a snowflake without a machine.

Snowflake woven on a loom

Anyone who has been interested in weaving for a long time probably has a loom. A large machine for weaving snowflakes is not needed. You need to remove one row and leave two. Six columns in two rows will be used.

You will need:

machine;
2 hooks;
57 rubber bands (blue and white).

Count out 33 blue and 24 white rubber bands. First, 6 pieces are woven separately

Weaving the first ray

The white iris needs to be wound 4 times around the hook, then the blue ring should be hooked onto the hook and pulled.
Next, you should lower the white winding onto the blue elastic band and put the loops formed on both sides on the middle pair of posts.

Position the machine so that the posts are in three pairs facing the master. From the right middle column, hook a loop and pull it over the first right column. Then put it on from the middle onto the far right column. Carry out the same manipulations on the left.

Now place 1 white elastic band on the far pair of posts, and the other on the nearest posts. Throw the blue elastic bands on the right and left inside through the posts. Press them closer to the base.

There are now white loops on posts No. 1 and No. 3. Now throw 2 blue rings on the No. 1 and No. 3 pairs of columns. The line of white loops appears in the middle of the structure. Now there are only blue loops on the posts.

Transfer the loop from the near right column with a hook to the right middle column, and from the left near column transfer the loop to the left middle column. Do the same on the far row.

Next, you need to throw white rings on the far and near pair of posts, and a blue elastic band on the middle pair. Now, using a crochet hook, grab the stretched blue loops from the bottom of columns No. 3 and No. 2 on the right and bring them to the middle. Do the same with the blue loop from stitch No. 1 and No. 2. Mirror the same on the left side.

Now you need to transfer the loops from the left row to the posts of the right row. Then collect the loops on a thin stick, alternately removing them from posts No. 3, No. 2, No. 1. 1 ray ready.

Weave 5 more rays in the same way

Weave 5 more such blanks in a similar way. Then all the blanks should be collected on a metal crochet hook.

Weaving the middle of a snowflake

Next, take a double white elastic band, hook one end with a loop onto the hook and lower all the blanks onto the stretched irises. It is important to do this carefully, without losing or confusing the rubber bands. Throw the other end of the loop over the hook, thereby collecting all the rays together.
Then insert a white elastic band into the loops and tighten it with a crochet hook so that the structure does not unravel. Now we need to stretch and straighten the rays. The snowflake is ready.

This snowflake can become not only Christmas tree decoration, and a ring for a finger or a decoration for a bracelet, all that remains is to weave the bracelet itself fish tail or French braid.

Weaving snowflakes on a slingshot

Having mastered the first version of weaving on a hook, we will use it to create a snowflake on a slingshot.

It can be easily mastered by beginners, so even if you don’t have a slingshot, use your own fingers.
Prepare:

rubber bands (6 white and 13 blue);
hook;
slingshot

We make 3-4 turns with a white or blue rubber band per 1 part of the slingshot.

We put 2 blue elastic bands on 2 parts of the slingshot and lower the white elastic bands onto the blue ones.

We transfer both loops of blue elastic bands to 1 part of the slingshot. We leave both loops on 1 part on the slingshot.

One ray is ready, you need to repeat the steps 5 more times. Repeating the operations described above step by step. What you should get with a slingshot, look at the photo below.

Then, we put 2 blue rubber bands on both sticks of the slingshot and lower all the rays onto them.

You should still have 2 loops of 2 blue elastic bands on your hook, as in the photo.

We transfer both loops to the slingshot, part 1. We pull the white rubber band through the blue loops that are on the slingshot. It is more convenient to do this with back side, since there is a groove for the hook. You have 2 white loops on the hook and 2 loops on the slingshot made of blue 2 rubber bands.

We tighten the single rubber band with a loop and remove it from the slingshot, the snowflake is ready. Pull each ray and straighten the snowflake so that the top white rubber bands are placed beautifully.

The size of such a snowflake is 3 cm, it is small, which means a keychain made from it is suitable for a phone, keys, tablet, smartphone, handbag, wallet. Using different colors of elastic bands, we get new variations that match the light of your clothes or contrast with them. If desired, weave the holder to the desired length.

How to weave a snowflake from rubber bands video

To weave three-dimensional snowflake made of rubber bands on a hook, you will need Rainbow Loom rubber bands of either one color or two colors. First you will need to take one rubber band and wrap it around the hook four times. After that, take another elastic band and thread it through the wound one so that all the loops are on it. The free part of this elastic band needs to be put on the hook.

You need to make three identical blanks. Then take another elastic band and start removing these blanks with it. Just as before, the free part of the elastic band must be put on the hook. The loops that have been put on must be removed again onto another elastic band and its ends must be put on the hook again. This will be the first ray of snowflake, so for now you can remove this blank from the hook. Using the same principle, you will need to prepare five parts for the five rays of a snowflake.

When all the pieces are ready, put them on the hook, take a new elastic band and thread it through the pieces.

Weaving a snowflake out of rubber bands is not at all difficult; this is perhaps the simplest figure to weave. You don’t even need a machine to weave, just a hook and the rubber bands themselves. So, you need to weave according to this video, this is the simplest lesson.

In general, prepare rubber bands of the same color, but different shades, for example, blue and blue (these are taken in the video). First of all, take an elastic band of a darker color and wind it onto the hook 4 times, then take 2 elastic bands of a dark color, throw them on the hook and move the elastic band that is on the hook onto these two elastic bands. You need to do this 3 times. Next, take 2 lighter elastic bands, put them on the hook and move the 3 previously obtained shapes onto the elastic bands. The top of the snowflake is ready, now start forming the ray. To do this, take 2 light elastic bands again and throw the top over it. You just need to make 6 of these blanks. All that remains at the end is to fasten them, and to do this, first simply put them all on the hook and fasten them according to the scheme described above.

I would like to note that when forming the rays, once they are already made, you can easily remove them from the hook and they will not unravel.

Continuing the theme of weaving various figures from colored rubber bands and not forgetting about the theme of the upcoming New Year and Christmas holidays, I would like to bring to your attention most interesting master class creating a delicate openwork snowflake using a slingshot and a hook. Such a figurine may well serve as an unusual New Year's souvenir, Christmas tree decorations, and similar snowflakes can be used for decoration New Year's costume, hairstyles, etc.

As for the difficulty of performing such work, I would classify it as average; at first, something may not work out, but by making, one by one, the constituent elements of the snowflake, each time everything will turn out faster and better, and in the end you will probably succeed create your own masterpiece. Separately, I would like to draw your attention to the material from which I wove my figurine, for this I chose blue translucent rubber bands, thanks to their unusual texture, the snowflake looks especially gentle and believable, with a slight shimmer.

Materials and tools

So, to make a snowflake from rubber bands we need:

translucent blue elastic bands;
rubber bands white;
slingshot;
hook.

Job Description

1. Please note that the main part of the snowflake will consist of blue translucent rubber bands, so we will need more of them, and the trim on the rays will be made of white rubber bands, we don’t need that many of them. We take the first white elastic band and throw it in three turns onto one of the posts of the slingshot (in our case, it’s the right one), which we previously turned towards ourselves with the existing recesses.

3. Helping yourself with a crochet hook, carefully remove the white elastic band wound in three layers from the right column to the center of the two upper elastic bands.

4. Now from the left column of the slingshot we transfer the remaining blue rubber bands on it to the left one and thus obtain the first element of one ray of a snowflake.

5. Based on the steps described above, we form two more identical elements in the same way and place them all on the right column of the slingshot.

6. After this, take the next pair of blue elastic bands and throw them on both columns of the slingshot.

7. Then, using an auxiliary hook, remove the first element from the left column to the middle of the top pair of blue elastic bands.

8. Then from the right column we move two more of the same elements onto the elastic bands.

9. Now we put another pair of blue elastic bands on the slingshot, exactly as we did all the previous times.

11. Using the same principle, we throw a loop from the left column of the slingshot onto the top pair of elastic bands and throw a pair of blue elastic bands onto it again.

12. On the next pair of elastic bands from both columns, we throw off the lower loops one by one using a hook, using the method already familiar to us.

13. Now we transfer the remaining loop from the left column of the slingshot to the right one and move the first finished ray of the snowflake further away, to the base of the tool, so that it does not interfere with our work.

14. Repeating steps 1 to 13, described in detail above, we form another ray of a snowflake, only we place it on the opposite column of the slingshot.

16. After all the individual elements of the snowflake are ready, we proceed directly to its assembly. To do this, we need another pair of blue rubber bands; we put them on the slingshot, just like we did all the previous times.

17. We begin to move our snowflake ray elements to the upper elastic band, we do this using a hook, remove the first element from above.

19. Then we transfer the rubber loop remaining on the right column, consisting of 2 rubber bands, to the left column.

20. Remove the remaining elastic bands from the post onto the hook, and pull one loop through the second, as shown in the photo below.

21. We thread the remaining loop using a hook between the nearest weaving elements of the figure.

22. In order for our snowflake to be hung, we stretch a blue elastic band through the central top white elastic band of one of the rays with a crochet hook and tighten it into a knot.

23. If necessary, we pull another elastic band through the formed loop and get a second loop, an elongated sample, which we also fix with a knot.

24. This is the snowflake we made from rubber bands.

All that remains is to find a worthy use for it, I decided to decorate the New Year tree with such a snowflake.
