The new, correctly assembled flextangle! With the messed up one I somehow made completely the wrong shape???? Idk how I did that it’s the same number of diamond shaped pieces of fabric idk how I messed it up that badly lol
My coworkers favorite colors are “yellow and anything bright” so this is what I went with
Cross posted because I’m proud of how this kaleidocycle turned out.
I created 24 triangles using a flat peyote stitch, then brought them together using a flower face join.
It needs some more finishing beads, but honestly, I think I’m going to leave it the way it is. It took an embarrassing amount of hours, but it did help me take it easy per doctors orders.
3D printed a Kalediocycle from Printables and it took 2 hours
Obsessed with these kaleidocycles!
Bonus points go to anyone who can identify which triangle has the wrong color beads.
2020 nov 23 // Some paper play! I stumbled on this website: https://hattifant.com/papercraft-kaleidocycle-spring/ and got intrigued!
An absolute fun Paper Toy to Color, Craft and Play with! Turn this Paper Toy Spring Kaleidocycle endlessly. Templates and tutorial available
This little paper craft, Flextangle, looks so elaborate and I was fascinated of how you can flip and turn it, check it out:

The website offers a template for free, which I of course downloaded, and after I watched their video tutorial I realised how easy it actually was to assemble. A very fun little toy, I’ve tried once with the already decorated template. But will print the empty one, so I can decorate it myself and try again 😋
