SOCK ROCKETS
From David & Goliath  Lesson Set
Sock Rockets
Supplies:
Pantyhose
Scissors

Step 1
Take one hose and tie a knot on the toe end.

Step 2
Take a handful of other hose and stuff them in the open end
(the thigh end) down to the toe.

Step 3
Push the hose in tight and form a ball at the toe end.
Tie a knot in the hose just on the other side of the hose that has been pushed down into the toe (thigh end of hose).

Step 4
Stick your hand down the thigh end of the hose all
the way down to the hose knotted at the toe end.

Step 5
Grab hold of the ball of hose at the toe end with this same hand.
With your free hand, pull the thigh end of the hose off your arm
and over the hose tied in a ball at the toe end.
(You are basically flipping the hose inside out.)

Step 6
Knot the hose again close to the toe end. You have just added another layer or “skin” to the ball of the sock rocket.

Step 7
Repeat # 5-8 as many as five to ten times. Remember to tie a tight knot in the hose as close to the balled up hose as you can.
