I was given a big box of leftover embroidery thread and I have been using it learning to make temari balls. They are made by wrapping yarn and then thinner and thinner thread around a core until it forms a ball, dividing the ball and marking it with thread and finally stitching geometric designs over the markings. I am still very much a beginner but these are really fun to make.

This is really pretty! Temari is something I've been wanting to try, but I haven't quite gotten the hang of it. Do you have any resources for getting started? Like written tutorials or videos?

I like to follow written instructions so I would recommend finding books on places like archive.org to get started.

I haven't used video instructions, but I assume YouTube has a ton of them.
