I love recycling sweaters to make little loveable things…I’ve also tried the idea you mentioned. I took a nice,too big wool sweater, and made it into a little lined sweater coat for my daughter this year. There are so many lovely natural fibers out there just waiting to be repurposed!

I made some legwarmers, dresses, a purse, and a baby toy out of three sweaters-details at this post from October 9. http://betsyannlob.blogspot.com/2008/10/project.html

I love these ideas about recycling sweaters. Another idea is to use old sweaters to make new beach ball pillows. I have pictures and instructions at my site (FunInTheMaking.net).
Make something today!
