Have you ever wondered how to take a sweater apart so you could re-knit the yarn? Well thank Ashley from the blog Neauveau for sending in a link to her wonderful tutorial! I can just hear sweaters all over the world unraveling and being re-knit! And if you are like me and just like to take the sweaters apart and use the pieces check out my latest Sweater Surgery project where I turned a regular turtleneck sweater into a embroidered shrug inspired by the new book Vampire Knits: Projects to Keep You Knitting from Twilight to Dawn.

Nice guide! This one helped me the first time I did it. I put up a tutorial of one sweater I unraveled on my blog here: http://the-meaning-of-mataphrium.blogspot.com/2011/02/how-to-unravel-sweater.html
