Two blocks made of white yarn are laying on a dark wooden table, next to a purple crochet hook, a purple darning needle, and a skein of pink-blue-white multicolored worsted weight silk yarn.

Sewing The Runes

24 of these blocks will be your rune faces and the rest will be the backs. Taking your second color of yarn and your yarn needle, embroider the runes into 24 of the blocks.

Assembly

Sandwich a rune face with a blank block and sew halfway shut using the long tail. Stuff the rune before sewing it the rest of the way shut. You can include herbs or small charms into your runes!
