KNIT yarn


Old T-shirts, sweat shirts, knit tops can be made into a bulky yarn! Cut from side to side in about 1 inch strips. Cut and slit each end with very small hole. Lace next strip through one end and pull through to make one continuous strand of knit yarn to up-cycle into whatever you can crochet or knit with bulky yarn.

The legs of small sweat pants, knit pants, sleeves from the tops and socks can be cut into loops for the TOY weaving looms. You can make a bigger loom for the larger loops with a piece of cardboard and push top thumb tacks. Make a rug !!

Thinking about cutting T-shirts spiral for yarn next time..???
