How to make T-shirt yarn
Another tutorial to help save our Mother Earth by turning unwanted items into something useful. This is the yarn ball I made out of an old T-shirt which I have been wearing for 10 years day-in day-out, wash-in wash-out. It finally broke down and tore at the collar and sleeves. Waste not, want not, I decided to recycle it. I have finished making the drawstring bag as shown above. Please click here to have a look and you can download the simple pattern I created. {CLICK HERE to get the Recycle Tutorial – Making Of T-Shirt Yarn.} Pages: 1 2 Print / Download PDF

knot trivet
last month i bought lauren a set of “the family creative workshop” books for her birthday. we’ve been having a blast learning all sorts of new things as we make our way through the incredible variety of projects collected in the volumes. one section we were particularly excited to explore was all about knots, which we’ve long admired both for their usefulness and their beauty. this project is based on a “carrick bend” and is great for creating trivets and placemats, but you could just as easily hang it on your wall to be admired for its decorative charm. have fun!derek & lauren CLICK HERE for the full project after the jump! here’s what you’ll need: -14 feet of 1/2” rope for an approximately 8” trivet (we recommend you play around with different lengths and thicknesses of rope until you find a size and style you like. the cotton rope is great for this project, but we couldn’t resist the nylon rope with its amazing patterns and colors.) 2. form a loop with the right (longer) piece as shown.

Crochet T-shirt Rug
I’ve seen a lot of crocheted and woven and braided rugs out on the internet; it was even one of the first things I pinned to Pinterest, but I never got around to trying one of my own until now. I always thought it was going to be difficult, but actually, it’s really quite easy, and no fancy instructions needed! Here’s how I made my own crochet rug from repurposed t-shirts! Step 1. Acquire fabric. In this case, I used XXL men’s t-shirts from Goodwill. Step 2. The basic idea is that the shirt is already in the round, so you’re cutting a continuous strip from the bottom hem up to the armpit. Step 3. Step 4. I used the largest crochet hook I had on hand, which was a size Q and started with 6 SC in the first round, doubled it to 12 in the second round, and slowly increased by multiples of 6 beyond that. 1st round: 6 SC 2nd round: 2 SC in each stitch (12 stitches) 3rd round: *1 SC in next stitch, 2 SC in next stitch, repeat from * (18 stitches) Crochet Rug from T-shirts from One Dog Woof
How to Crochet the Crocodile Stitch: Video and Photo Tutorial
The Crocodile Stitch, aka the Scale Stitch, is the most requested video tutorial on the Moogly Facebook page – and you all know how I love to take requests! But I decided to take it one step further, and include not only a video and written instructions, but a photo tutorial as well! There are a variety of ways to make the Crocodile Stitch, and I’ve attempted several of them myself. Video Tutorial: How to Crochet the Crocodile Stitch Written Instructions and Photo Tutorial for the Crocodile Stitch This pattern for the Crocodile Stitch is worked best in a multiple of 10 plus 1. Row 1: Ch to desired length (see note above). Row 2: Ch 1, and start working into the first pair of dc sts, skipping the single dc if that was the last st of the previous row. Then make 5 dc around the post of the next dc st, working from the foundation chain end towards the top. *Sl st in the next single dc. Row 3: Ch 3, dc in the same st. Row 5: Ch 1 and sl st in the center of the last scale made.
