Upcycle- lovely cotton yarn

[Cora01]

Truly upcycle! I bought a name brand but out of date 100% cotton sweater at the thrift store, brought it home, washed it and pulled it apart. the yarn makes the best dishcloths ever!

Cora, what a green idea! How do you unravel it? Do you have a lot of short pieces or does it come off in long lengths?

Awesome! They look really nice and durable!

I just unpicked the stitching at the sides of the sweater and arms and then found a thread and unraveled it. If it's all one colour it should be one peice or at least very long peices.

Thanks, what have I got to loose? Maybe $2 or $3 dollars for used tops. Great idea!!
