Scoobies

[xCharliex]

You know them weird stringy things, lol well does anyone know of any websites which have step to step pictures on how you do them darn things, all the lil kids seem to know how to do them but me and my friend are serioulsy confused as to how to do them, her kiddies want some and were trying to figure out how the hell you work them, lol

[samantha nixon]

hi
i dont no where you can find out how to make them but you can buy a book from the entertainer and there are instructions on some of the packs

[willow]

they are a nightmare i can't do the flippin' things!!!!

[samantha nixon]

i can do them its just hard to explain but my mate can do names and everything in them

[willow]

my son has them, but i try and get totally stressed out doing them!! i have been shown step by step how to do them and i still can't!!

[samantha nixon]

[willow]

i think maybe i am just too old to learn somthing new!!!

[samantha nixon]

Did U Not Have Them When U Wa Younger As My Mum Is Similar Age And She Used To Do Them

[willow]

[samantha nixon]

[willow]

[samantha nixon]

[willow]

[Bad Wolf]

my little bro (hes 9) is obsessed! and so am i when i go home- he gets me to do them for him

[Tori]

i love scoubidou, i've been doing them since i was 7. i have far too many now but i keep going!!

[Bad Wolf]

how old are you now?

[Tori]

15

[Bad Wolf]

cool, sam (my bro) learned it at cubs (or what ever 9 year olds do that leads to scouts)

[Tori]

beavers isn't it??

[Bad Wolf]

havent a clue, he like it tho,
when i go back i get to do them- they are addictive although they cramp up your fingers

[Tori]

some melted once

[Bad Wolf]

they stink!!!!

[Tori]

what scoubidous??

[Bad Wolf]

yup! they have a horrible plasitc-y smell

[Tori]

yeah i despise the smell as well, but i find it fun

[Kim]

Shall see what I can do :)
Thanks.

[Jojo]

can i have a copy pleaseHopefully winging its way to you!

[Jojo]

Thanks.Haven't forgotten you - you are more fun to send to than the others cause of the links but I've sent an email about it so hopefully you should get it soon hon!

[Abbie]

wow sound like youve been busy

[Jojo]

I like to help :D

I think its easier to do it this way though, rather than people trying to find out where to get books etc....this was, I paid 45p for it and if anyone would like a copy, its no probs. Why say, I've got a 186 page word document full of them, but you're not having a look and are going to have to find it yourself - I'm not like that :D

I was really chuffed the other day though, cause I made the rocket and it only took about 2 hours (on and off that is though!)

[samantha nixon]

would i be able to have a copy or would you be able to tell me where you got it from as i have the book from the entertainer but i think its confusing and i got another book which is even harder
thanks

[Jojo]

[Bad Wolf]

[samantha nixon]

[Jojo]

[Abi]

Scoobies are well good. I can do them with up to 8 strings. I've done loads for my German teacher in the German flag colours, and some in French and Spanish colours.

[Tori]

yeah, i can do up to 10 and i enjoy them lo. people aren't bothered to learn how to do the more complex ones though, so they get bored and move on but i haven't!!!

[Abi]

I make peoples initals as well, and intertwine them in a scoobie

[Tori]

how do you do those??

[Abi]

Make a really long one, and do it around a piece of thin wire. Then bend it into shape. Do the second inital by doing another scoobie, but intertwineing it

[Tori]

o cool... down to hobbycraft for the wire for me then!! thanks

[Abi]

I put them inside cards on someones birthday. Fun for me, and a cheap pressie!

[Tori]

i give them to people who are leaving, to remeber me or i give them for random reasons like hi, i made a scoubidou, would you like it??
