Make sure you wash first. It really shrinks. Works great in rag quilts.

Homespun is great for chenille type potholders. They are my favorite ones.

I made a raggy jacket from homespun and I shrank it 2 or 3 times before I cut it to keep the fraying to a minimum. Then, I used short, scissors to clip the seams all over the coat.
