Fabric Twine and T-Shirt Yarn Workshop
T-shirt yarn is made from old t-shirts and is perfect for chunky knitting, crochet, weaving and macrame. It is a great way to recycle old t-shirts and saves them from ending up in landfill. After making a ball of continuous yarn we will turn some of that yarn into an infinity scarf requiring no sewing at all. I will also teach you how to make Fabric Yarn. Making this yarn is quite addictive; once you get started you just want to see how big you can make your ball of twine! It is quite meditative, a great way to slow down and once again save all those scraps of fabric going to landfill. I will also give you some great tips and hints on how to use your twine.
