Plastic yarn

  • 1. You will need
    This is a great recycling technique, transforming plastic carrier bags into yarn. The resulting yarn can be crocheted, woven or knitted into items such as rugs and bags.

Sweet William

Flowers to Knit

Flowers to Knit and Crochet received an excellent review from Bertram's Booktime, a magazine for the bookselling trade. Here is the review, with free pattern for knitting my Sweet William. If anyone is going to attempt this pattern, be warned that it is quite fiddly and not really suitable for a novice knitter – but the resulting flowers are well worth the effort.
