Abstract: A fancywork is made by bonding a yarn or yarns in a desired pattern onto the surface of a base plate or sheet of planar or various three-dimensional shape, which surface of the base plate or sheet has been coated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive. The bonding of the yarn is effected by pressing with the fingertip, and an implement for guiding the yarn may be used. A decorative plate for sticking onto various objects is also made similarly by bonding a yarn or yarns on one surface of a base plate or sheet which has been coated on both surfaces with a pressure-sensitive adhesive and cutting out around the circumference of the pattern formed.
