You can make an Imbolc cross using ruses/straw and some yarn. You should soak the straw for at least 30 minutes before using them to prevent breakage. Follow these steps. • Start with two straws and fold both in the middle. • Wrap the second straw over the first straw closer to the folded end • Wrap the third straw around the second straw and a fourth straw around the third straw • Tuck the ends of the fourth straw through the loop of the first straw • Pull-on the ends to form a box-shaped knot in the middle • You can add two to three more rows folding them in the same direction as the first one. • Ensure the ends of the last straw in each row tuck into the loop of the first straw in the row.
