Last Saturday I had the opportunity to attend Swap a rama rama, a great event where crafters bring old clothes they no longer want and shop from others donations. At the event I learned how to make a skirt out of old blue jeans, which I will probably try out over the summer. I also picked up a few bright colored T-shirts so I could bring them home to try and make T-shirt yarn.
Here's the tutorial I followed:

Anyway, now I'm addicted. I've been cutting up T-shirts right and left. I'm still not sure what I'll be doing with my yarn, but I'm excited by the possibilities.
