Upcycling Old Sweaters

Upcycling can be a money saver — or a money maker. It can be a way to preserve an inherited sweater from your dearly departed mother or grandmother, or a way to hang onto a treasured sweater that has sentimental value. Let these creative upcycling projects stir up your imagination.

 Slippers

 Fancy Pillows

Un-fancy pillows 

Cover an old oatmeal container

 Covered Mason Jars

A purse

Lap blanket or Baby blanket

Mittens

If you like the idea of upcycling and you aren't crafty, take a look at Etsy.com. They have plenty of fun things there waiting to be sold.
