Hats for Homeless, Welcome Becky P

Thank you Becky for your thoughtful donation of hats.  Two of her hats are crocheted and one is knitted.  I particularly like the texture in the knitted hat (lower right in the picture). Becky used fiber from a sweater to make 2 of the hats....how cool is that folks!


Please keep up the good work.

    Welcome Becky! So glad you found us! I love the knitted hat! It is my favorite and I am so excited that you recycled the wool. I love recycling! I hope we see you here lots and keep your hook and needles flying!

    Great looking donation Becky! I love the idea of recycling yarn. How long did it take to unravel the sweater tho?

    Thanks ladies for the visits and comments, both are appreciated. I've heard of folks doing the unraveling, haven't tried it myself yet, but how cool the idea of re-cycling. Unsure if it can be done very well with washable fibers vs wool? Anyone know?
