Three Straw Twisted Lei-Hilo

A three-straw twisted lei is created byweaving yarn around three straws to form a, often, 24- to 30-inch long, fluffy, and full-looking, but lightweight lei. Using bubble tea/smoothie straws, grosgrain ribbon, and fuzzy or eyelash yarn, the technique involves tying yarn to the base of the straws and weaving figure-eights, pulling the resulting yarn down as it is created, and finally twisting or knotting to achieve the desired, often, 3D effect.
