Hi Daniela, thanks for the invite. I will be heading over to link up at your party. Thanks for stopping by. I hope to see you again.
DeleteThis is such a great post! I love the pumpkins and the snowman! I also pinned this to my "parenting" board on Pinterest because all parents wonder what to do with those old clothes...!
ReplyDeleteHi Bonnie, Thanks so much. The pumpkins and snowman are so cute. I also really like the Christmas stockings. Thanks, I appreciate the PIN. Have a wonderful week.
DeleteI love the little snowman, what a great item to make and not let that sweater go to waste. Thank you for all of the wonderful links.
ReplyDeleteHeidi’s Wanderings
The snowman really stands out doesn't he. It was the sweater blanket that first grabbed my attention. It just looks so cozy for winter.
DeleteSuch creative uses for old sweaters. Those sweater pumpkins are adorable and really like the idea of use sweaters as gift packaging. Visiting from the CLIMB blog hop.
ReplyDeleteHi Wanda, it's amazing to me that there are such creative people out there.
DeleteWhat wonderful ideas! I just love re-purposed stuff, so clever and so good for the environment! LOVE this post :)
ReplyDeleteHi Laura Lee, I love repurposed stuff too! I hate the idea of so many things going to the dump when it can be reused by someone.
DeleteI have a few old sweaters stashed in a closet that I've been trying to figure out how to revamp. Thanks for all these great ideas! Coming by from The Wednesday Roundup and hope to see you again this week!
ReplyDeleteI personally do not have any sweaters - they make me too hot - put I get all kinds of sweaters from my granddaughters every spring as they outgrow their clothes. So we both now have a few projects to make. :)
DeleteSweaters are the one thing I have trouble finding ways to repurpose so this post is wonderful! There are so many great ideas here. Thanks for sharing these, can't wait to try them!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jody, I am glad you like this post and so happy that you are going to try a few! :)
DeleteWhat a brilliant post and that snowman is cute as he can be. :) Thank you for linking to Super Sunday Sync.
ReplyDeleteThanks. The snowman looks easy enough to make with my young granddaughters. Are yougoing to give it a go?
DeleteDarlene, this is a great round-up!! Thanks, Linda
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, nice to see you again. Thanks for the compliment. Hope to see you again soon.
DeleteThis an absolutely wonderful round up!! Thanks for sharing on Four Seasons Blog Hop~ Lynn @ Turnips 2 Tangerines
ReplyDeleteThanks Lynn, I'm glad you liked it.
DeleteThese ideas are amazing! I found you from the climb blog hop, can't wait to keep seeing more great craft ideas.
ReplyDeleteHi Debbie, thanks for stopping by from the blog hop. I hope I won't disappoint you.
DeleteDarlene,
ReplyDeleteWe love all of these projects. Great ideas. Thank you so much for sharing with Wednesday's Adorned From Above Link Party. Have a great week.

Hi Debi and Charly, So happy that you love the round up. Thanks for hosting the Party.
DeleteSuch cute ideas! I had never even considered the amount of things that could be done with an old sweater! Thank you so much for sharing at Meandering Mondays! Hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it amazing that there are so many projects that can be made from sweaters! And this is just a small sampling of what is out there.
DeleteI love this post SO MUCH! I pinned this and even though I'm a very clumsy sewer/seamstress, I will actually try more than a few of these! I know where I'm headed when I get paid, to the Thrift Shop to look for sweaters! Thank you for the amazing inspirations.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Joy for letting me know how much you love this post. Good thing is, not all the projects require sewing while others only require a beginner's level.
DeleteLove it! Great ideas! I'm totally gonna try some of these!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah. I hope you come back and let me know which ones you do.
DeleteOMMMGGEE-- I love this post! Thank you so much for the inspiration :) Now I wish I would have waited to make that trip to the Good Will after cleaning out my closet last month. Purged a bunch of sweaters, dress pants and jeans. Oh well. Thrift store shopping for sweaters to make some of these projects will be fun.
ReplyDeleteFound your link on Fabulous Farm Living btw and I'm your newest follower. Have a great week!
Isn't that how it goes. You finally decide to get rid of some stuff only to find out shortly later that you could use it. LOL On the other hand, like you said, you now have a reason to go shopping! Have wonderful week.
DeleteWhat lovely ideas. Love the socks made from sleeves. Thank-you for sharing and linking your wonderful post to "The Most Fabulous Link-up Jol"
ReplyDeleteI am following you on a variety of different social media.
Keren (From the blog: Fabulous-farmliving)
Hey Keren, thanks for the follow. I'll have to check out your blog. Have a great day.
DeleteWho Knew you could do SO MUCH with old sweaters??? I am In Love with the Purse! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing what you can find when you search the web - so many talented people.
DeleteThanks for sharing my Repurposed Sweater Sleeve Gift Bags, Darlene. This round up is a repurposer's dream! Thanks for sharing at Inspire Us Thursday at Organized 31.
ReplyDeleteHi Susan, it's my pleasure to share your gift bags. They just happened to fit in well with this round up. And you know, I found it through Google.
DeleteThanks for joining us on The Great Blog Train Ride! What an awesome line-up! Lynn @ Turnips 2 Tangerines...on my comment above I left out the "is":(
ReplyDeleteHi again Lynn. :) Isn't it a bummer that you can't go back and fix your comment. I don't know how many times that I hit post then saw a silly mistake. We should be able to edit our comments.
DeleteThese are all so clever. Love them. Thanks tons for linking to Inspire Me. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteHi Marty, thanks. As usual, it was a fun party.
DeleteAs I sit here in -27 degrees C thoughts about sweaters are most welcome! I have a pair of sweater mittens that have lasted several years and are so cozy warm. I really love those sweater socks too. Visiting via LOBS (I'm number 64). Have a lovely day - keep warm! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Barb, winter is definitely here now. Ice is everywhere, splitting trees and downing power lines. Luckily our power was only out for a few minutes.
DeleteGreat list! I think the pillows and candle holders are my favorite :-) Not much need for wearing sweaters here in Florida so great way to recycle the ones I used to wear when I lived in Illinois. Thanks for sharing with us at Take it On Tuesday! ~Kelly @ Eyes on the Source
ReplyDeleteYou could make gifts for friends or family who live in colder climates. I can't image living in an area that doesn't get cold. Weird to me but awesome for you.
DeleteThe sweater Idea is so cute. Might have to try this. Thanks for linking up with us at Fresh Friday
ReplyDeleteThanks Aleshea.
DeleteI so love re-purposing! Thanks for all the great ideas! -Marci @ Stone Cottage Adventures
ReplyDeleteIt's great when you don't have to buy anything to complete a project and save landfill space for other things.
DeleteBrilliant collection of tutorials. Thanks for linking up at the Creative Home and Garden hop.
ReplyDeleteThanks Alison, I tried to make sure I only included posts that included the tutorials. It's a bummer when you see a neat project but it doesn't include instructions.
DeleteDarlene, I love this round up. It covers all areas! That must have taken quite a bit of time to put together. Very well done, girl. Your friend, Linda
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda. It did take quite some time researching then editing the photos etc. Not everyone appreciates the amount of work that can go into a round up.
DeleteLOVE these ideas!! I'm definitely going to have to make some of these. I love sweaters! Thanks for linking up at Take it on Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteHi Betsy, I look forward to seeing the finished products!
DeleteI absolutely love all these repurposed sweater ideas! So crafty! :-) I found your blog through The Great Blog Train! You can check out my blog, Meg’s Menagerie, at http://megmeg77.wordpress.com/ Have a great week!!!
ReplyDeleteHello Megan, you can keep all those old favorite sweaters but restyled into something different. :)
DeleteHi Debi and Charly, thanks for visiting. Have a great week too.
