  1. Take seven stalks of wheat. (7 days a week)
  2. Tying twine under the spikelets. This is our first sheaf - the first branch "Didukh".
  3. 3. Snopiki such need of them we are weaving a first series of "Didukh".
  4. Next, we need to prepare more snopiki 8, each bundle of twine entwine on a length of 5 cm. Of these, we gossip, 2nd and 3rd rows "Didukh".
  5. All required bundles are ready, we can start to weave our "Didukh". First row - is the "future". Take one sheaf (not entangled with string), and thereto, about 5 cm lower, even putting a three sheaves. All bundles entwine tightly with string to a length of 6 cm.
  6. We begin to weave the second row - "Nothing." We take a sheaf, apply to the "future" and continue to turn the twine tight that there is no visible stalk. We made three turns twine, put the second sheaf again three turns with string, and so all 4 sheaves. Next, twist around every stalk our 'Didukh "tightly with string to the length of 6-7 cm.
  7. We proceed to the third row - the "past". Putting a sheaf, do three turns twine still sheaf - even three turns with string, and so all 4 sheaves.
  8. After the last sheaf is braided stems to a length of 3-4 cm.
  9. All sheaves we have woven together, now we need to make our legs "Didukh". To do this, divide evenly into three parts stalks and gently turn down the side. To two feet, we do not interfere, as we criss-cross the first, we will fix them with adhesive tape (adhesive tape). Twine wrap on a first leg dovzhinu 7 cm, then the second and third. All legs okruchennye twine. Add them together and fix.
  1. Take a writing knife and cut cleanly superfluous.
