I have had a ton of requests for a "How To" for the Yo Yo's. This is no where near a professional tutorial but it will do. I hope.
Materials: Scissors, needle, thread, fabric, different size circles, and a pen. If you want to make a head pieces you will need glue( hot or fabric), a button and stretchy band.
Turn the fabric face down and place desired circle size on it. The bigger the circle the bigger the yo yo and vise versa. My personal opinion is dont do a very small circle because it is REALLY hard to sew. Trace around circle with a pen.
Cut out circle.
Thread needle. Fabric is still face down, Turn in outer edge of fabric and begin hand stitching. The Larger the stitch the smaller the opening will be in your Yo yo.

Once you have gone all the way around your yo yo, pull thread.
Make a few stitches to keep the thread in place.
Cut thread and WA-LA.
