Here’s everything you need:
Somewhere flat to work
Plastic shopping bag or a thin sheet of plastic
2-10” bamboo BBQ skewers
clear tape
a ruler
a black permanent marker
scissors, big enough to snip the skewers
Spool of thread (preferably polyester)
Snip the points off each skewer.
3
Find and mark the midway point on each skewer. Find a mark the midway
point between the middle point and the end of one of the skewers.
Cut the sides of the plastic bag and lay it flat. Arrange the skewers over
the plastic.

Make marker dots at the
end of each skewer. Use
a ruler to connect the
dots and make a diamond
shape. Cut out the sail.
