    Need twine, make your own from scraps

    A great use for the scraps of fabric that usually get tossed. Fun to do while watching TV as well, mindless fun which is what I live for.

    Thank you for sharing this. I do recycle and up-cycle sewing and I'm always needing trim etc., this will be fun to make and use. So thank you again for thinking about us.

    My teen DD really likes this and is now planning to make twine to crochet with. My guess she will probably make a run or purse with the crochet project.

    That was my thought...crocheting! Do you think if a person crocheted a rug it would be thick enough using this twine?

    I've been saving my skinny scraps for a long time, hoping I'd find something to do with them, Twine it is!
