How to reuse your old clothes

Stop! Were you about to toss that T-shirt into the trash? And those shredded jeans? Step away from the garbage can! Stained work shirts and threadbare jammies and even worn out undies? Don’t you dare throw them away!

Listen, our landfills are landFULL. Filled up. Overflowing, even. Enough! We need to do whatever we can to keep as much as possible from landing on that pile. And old clothes, my friends, are an excellent place to start.

So what to do with those raggedy or too small or too big or too passé or just plain “over it” garments? Well first, don’t forget that you can always restyle or upgrade your items with a bit of ingenuity (and an awesome Internet tutorial). This could include altering or resizing, dyeing, patching, or completely remaking. But if you’re not the crafty type, please consider donating them to charity. Or if you’re feeling festive, why not do a bit of frock swapping? Alternately, you can always recycle them. And finally, if the clothing is too far gone to be given away, it’s probably compostable. Yes really! Anything is better than the landfill.

Make sure to pick up ALL side stitches so your bag will not have an open hole. This is the bottom base of the bag. Wrap all pegs ew in a full circle and knit over leaving only 1 set of two strands (the two color choices). For example the side stitches had 3 sets of two before knitting over. Weave the icord into the top of the bag between the knit stitch columns. Row to start the weaving. Look at the top of the bag. Weave between the two top purl rows. I started mine just above the bottom purl row (it's the 2nd to last purl row you completed). Connect the ends by tying together and weaving in the rest. Feed access handle material equally on opposite sides to pull outward, making it look like two handles. See picture. Pull both handles to drawstring...
