Recycling Sweaters
I am in the process of recycling some of the sweaters in my collection. I am going to hand dye some of the resulting fiber. I have already completed one sweater it had a fair isle pattern on the top so it was a little time consuming, but the resulting fiber was worth it. I have over 1000 yards of 100% acrylic chenille yarn that will knit up on #6 needles.

I am currently working on a baby sweater for a friend who is having a little boy in september I am making it out of a bernet yarn it is discontinued now but I had enough in my stash, it lookes like faded jeans after it is knitted.

About Me.
I have been knitting on and off for about 6 years. I started to it more often about 2 years ago and last year I opened up a small shop in Covington, GA. Katie Cannon & Company. I taught knitting classes for the first 3 months that I was opened and I plan on offering them again over the summer. I have a good many people interested in these classes. I was featured in the Covington News last year about the classes and I am now selling my recycled and hand dyed yarns in the shop.
