Finishing
Draw the end through the last loop on the hook, and pull tight to form a knot.
– or –
Use an invisible join to give the neatest finish.
Using a yarn needle, weave the end down to the ‘knot’ of the balloon.
To make the balloons ‘float’ in the air, you’ll need to use a rigid stick as the balloon’s string. I used bamboo skewers, painted white with acrylic craft paint. You could also use thin wooden dowel (again paint it white too look more like string if desired) or lollipop sticks.
Safety note: please take care with sharp objects around young children. Bamboo skewers have sharp points, so snip the sharp ends off before using them if the balloons bay be within reach of little hands.
Insert the stick into the open bottom of the balloon. (Optional: apply a thin layer of white glue around the top of the stick before inserting it, so the stick will be glued to the stuffing.) If the hole is too large, make a few stitches around the ‘knot’ area of the balloon with the yarn end, and draw tight around the stick. (Note: I didn’t feel that this was necessary with my balloons.)
Pass the yarn end through the balloon, coming out somewhere along the balloon’s side. Draw the yarn tight, and snip the end close to the balloon. The yarn end should retract back inside the balloon after it is cut.
