Boondoggle

Boondoggle is a Valley Day Camp tradition.  Since our very first day of camp in 2003 we’ve been boondoggle crazy.  This year is no exception.  In your camp supply kit you should have found a boondoggle that was made for you by one of our PAs or adult volunteer.

For campers going into 3^rd grade and older your supply kit also included boondoggles to make yourself.  They have already been started for you.

Two color box stitch is perfect to start off with!

The next step is two color round/barrel stitch Click Here

Three color twist – this shows it in two different videos one for left handed and one for right handed.  I don’t think it matters which one you use as they both teach the stitch.  I’m right handed but I boondoggle the direction shown in the left handed video.  Whatever works for you is great.
