    I've been working on a recycled silk yarn purse and I love this yarn. I got it on Etsy and highly recommend the artists there!

    Love the Lens. I have tried using torn material as yarn and the sweater came out gorgeous. I gave it to my little sister whom I had created it for. Love the idea of going Green with crafts.

    I love to crochet with plarn! I have a big trashbag of bags right now that I picked up from someone on freecycle. This lens is making me want to get busy making more things!
    I also have crocheted rag rugs with t-shirts for years.....well over 10 years. I have lots of t-shirt rounds cut and should get busy making some of those too.
    Watching the video on your lens makes me realize that I can do my t-shirts cut thinner and still make nice rugs. Mine are thick.

    Thanks for educating the world and contributing to environmental awareness and changing lifestyle. This lens is featured on my Environment lensography - perhaps you want to sport the badge?

    Great lens on a terrific topic! I'm old enough to remember learning how to knit and weave with fabric scraps, which we now call recycled yarn. It amazes me how many things I took for granted growing up are now trendy and hip. 5* from me.

    Love this lens 5* and spreading the Angel dust around you for making fantastic and very useful lenses

    Wow - you have so many amazing lenses!! I particularly love this one, and I don't even knit or crochet! This lens makes me want to learn how...and to hit the Salvation Army start unraveling some sweaters and cutting up some T-Shirts. So fun!

    Cool lense! I am going to get to making some this weekend!

    I have worked with some artists on Etsy that have created some amazing products out of recycled plastic shopping bags. Thanks for giving us a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the process!

    Hi there, this page and the links are really great: 5-star lens. Combining recycling and yarn in a lens- awesome! As I was checking out knitting-related lenses, I was considering making a link list of Squidoo knitting lenses... either on my "Knitting on the Internet" lens or a completely separate one. What do you think, and would you like this lens or another to be on a list? Visit my lens & tell me what you think! Thanks,

    What a great idea Noadi - lensrolled to a couple of mine & featured on one.

    Nice work Naodi! I wonder how long it takes to recycle yarn! Blessing on this lens today! :o)

    There's nothing better than being crafty and green all at the same time! I love learning about new ways to do both - thanks for all the great information and ideas.

    I am always looking for new sources of yarn. Your lens has many practical applications, especially to those of us on a budget. Now we can save the planet by knitting! Rock on, Girl!

    Good lens, I'm lensrolling it to my Debbie Macomber lens.

    Love the idea of unraveling old sweaters, great for those old friends who are too shabby to pass on.
