Description:
What can you make with yarn? Please send your partner, one item, made from recycling some yarn in some way. Your item does not have to be 100% recycled materials, nor does it have to be 100% yarn...you can mix some old yarn with some new if you have it, or combine it with other craft materials, but let's not buy anything to make this craft but use what we have on hand instead. So, you could choose to make a scarf, an ornament, a stuffie, a belt, a doll, a tote bag or purse, a stocking, or any other craft you can imagine using some yarn on it somewhere. Have fun! Everyone is welcome who has a filled out profile and no recent unexplaned low ratings.

Would something made from a felted wool sweater count as made from recycled yarn? Thank you Pat

Sure you can use a wool sweater, just add a yarn hanger, hair, embellishment, etc. :)
