- (continued from previous page)bunch you come home and brake off the stalks. After you have that done you get a needle and a big long thread, and put one by one of the heads of the cowslips on the thread. You keep putting on until you have the length of the thread full of cowslips. Then you get both ends of the thread and tie them together and pull them tight. Then you have a piece of thread over after you have the ball pulled tight and you tie another piece of thread into the other to make it longer.
