Recycled wool sweaters
Posted: Sunday, February 3rd, 2008
Wool sweaters are great! They are warm and durable and last a long time and when they are too far gone to wear anymore you can turn them into new things like bags, blankets, slippers, mittens, or hot pads for the kitchen. You can get wool sweaters from thrift stores and craft them into something new and useful. Or, if you find a wool sweater that is too big you can shrink it in the washer and stretch any part of it before it dries. I found a tutorial some time back on how to make a sweater bag, I haven’t made it yet but it looks fun. Let me know if you try it.
