Angel Fish

These are 'angel fish' made out of harakeke.
Very simple to make. The instructions are found in the book 'Fun with Flax'.
A great activity for wet days because one can create these ika ( fish) using paper.
By the time September comes (when one is able to cut harakeke again because it has been resting over the winter months ) the children will be 'guns' at making ika. Then you can make some out of the 'real thing'.
They look neat strung up as mobiles and the odd sparkly bead added puts an interesting aspect on the whole creation.
