One of the many things that caught my eye in this month’s issue of Saveur was a recipe for homemade ketchup. Ketchup is one of those things I’ve never really thought to make before, but I was intrigued to see how different it would taste. So of course I gathered all the ingredients, or so I thought, and got to work.

It’s pretty simple actually. I just roughly chopped some tomatoes, onions and pepper and tossed them in a pot. I kind of missed the ball when I came to the spices though. Once everything was nice and soft, I took it off the stove and tossed it all in the food processor. I bet you’re wondering how it tasted. Homemade ketchup from saveur 4 whole cloves 1 bay leaf 1 stick cinnamon* 1⁄4 tsp. celery seeds** 1⁄4 tsp. chile flakes 1⁄4 tsp. whole allspice 2 lbs. tomatoes, roughly chopped 1 1⁄2 tsp. kosher salt 1⁄2 cup white vinegar 5 tbsp. brown sugar 1 onion, chopped 1 anaheim chile, chopped 1 clove garlic.

Welcome to Neauveau Fiber Arts: How to Unravel a Sweater to Recycle Yarn. This is the sweater we will be unraveling. Turn your sweater inside-out, grab a pair of sharp scissors and let's get started! There are good seams and bad seams. This is an example of a good seam. It looks like two tiny braids side-by-side.

You can cut between those two braids of a good seam and unravel a super-long strand of yarn that you can wind into a huge skein. If you cut a bad seam, you will get short equal-length pieces of yarn which I call yarnlets. Newbie unravelers will want to cut the thread one bit at a time, which is fine. I've cut the seam from the bottom of the sweater to the end of the sleeve. At the top of the sleeve are little loops! FLASH FORWARD: See the pile of yarn ramen in this photo? When you unravel a sweater that is made of many colors, you will usually find a knot where the two colors meet. Here is the collar and shoulder seams of the sweater, still waiting to be unraveled. This is what a bad seam looks like. On a whim I pull the little thread.
