Weave a Putiputi  / Flower from Harakeke

his harakeke putiputi / flower is lovely to make and gift, making it a fabulous gift for Mother’s Day.
Made out of NZ flax, these putiputi are easy to make, and look great on a greeting cards, or make several for a bouquet.

• Step by step photographic instructions help you to weave a Harakeke Putiputi Rose.
• Includes a Mother’s Day Greeting Card Template to print and present your beautiful flower when gifting.
• As Harakeke is a firmer material to work with, young children could also make with paper strips which fold and hold easier.
• Supplied as an A4 digital file to download and print
• Buy once, use forever! Making it a great project to make in the classroom or home as gifts.

Be sure to learn about safe harvesting and tikanga including karakia for Harakeke.
I recommend you check out this ‘Harakeke Weaving Resource’, for info on how to work with, care for, and harvest  Harakeke.
