Trash to Treasure






All of these little treasures were made from things destined for the trash. The adorable pink scarf is a revamped sweater. The idea came from knitty.com. I think the technique is called shiburi...basically resist feltin. Pretty cool. The apron is made from some old canvas I found while cleaning out one of our vacant apartments. The slippers are also from an old sweater. And the gift tags were little upc tags that came on a bunch of cloth shopping bags that I bought. No point in being environmentally consious if I don't make a point of recycling everything right??
