This has been a rough couple of weeks. I’m fighting bronchitis and a sinus infection and don’t seem to be winning the battle. My visits here have been far too few, but today I ran across this video and wanted to share. I’ve taken the “Knitting Green Challenge” for the fun of it. Check it out…you may want to play, too.
Until next time…
Remember…Knitting will keep you in stitches. 🙂

She seeketh wool, and flax and worketh willingly with her hands.

hmmmmmmmmmm. This will get even more gears in my head going. I have 3 projects in the works now. A slouch hat with Mushishi Yarn 491 yards of 95% wool and 5% silk, a pair of anklets a wool and nylon blend and a baby blanket for a girl in acrylic baby yarn from Lion brand. There lots of clothes around here that some never wear. Hee hee i’ll put that on my list.
That is cool!! I will be posting soon, about a woman who had a display of old feedsacks, and all the wonderful items she made out of them, in the 50’s and 60’s – using the cotton yarn/string that the sacks are made of!!!
Hope you feel better soon, and get to join us for tuesday tea!!!
I’m actually making plarn (plastic yarn) out of grocery bags and using them to crochet something. I have been toying all month about cutting up one of my old tee shirts, but haven’t had the time. Glad you posted this. Earth day and going green needs to be on everyone’s mind.
I cut two of dh’s old t-shirts last night and made a ball of farn (fabric yarn :). I started knitting it with size 15 needles and look forward to playing with it some more today and this evening. I’m noodling ideas to make it “special”.
Pat, I so wish companies would go back to packaging flour and sugar in sacks instead of paper, etc. I miss those old flour sacks. I would love to have a stack of them but am not willing to pay the premium price. Green means saving money to me.
I’ll be looking for your post.
