  • Step 1

    Take two chains of different colors and lay them next to each other so that they interlock.

  • Step 2

    Gently pull one end of one chain to create an alternating pattern. Be sure that the pattern doesn't double up at any point or your shape won't turn out right!

  • Step 3

    Create a hexagon with at least 4 Speks on each side, but you can make it as large as you wish. Take your patterned chain and start wrapping it around the hexagon.

  • Step 4

    Once you've reached your desired size, gently peel the base hexagon out of the middle.

  • Step 5

    Repeat steps 3-4 two more times, then stack your open hexagons on top of each other to create a sturdy shape.

  • Ta-da

    All done!
