I have a half done knitted blanket I don’t plan to finish. This one:
Well, I loved it, but I made a vital mistake - I ordered too little yarn. And I bet you can guess what happens if you order too little yarn… yep…. they discontinued it.
I played with the thought of continuing with some other color, but I don’t think I would use it. It’s not perfect and it would stand in my way…
So what to do with the strip of knitted garment? Pillows of course 🙂 And I’m so happy how they turned out.
Here’s what I did.
I prepared the garment by threading two strips of yarn through stitches (in case one of those try to slip away)
Now I started to cut (yes, I had a face like I was doing a brain surgery - and I felt like it too)
Finally I crocheted cut edges and formed pillows
Done!
Now this was a day well spent 🙂
Love them!
Me too 😀
What a great idea! And they look great too 😉
Haha - yes that is what happens with yarn that is not bought enough quantity. I have had similar situation twice I think.
And brave girl to cut a knitting! 🙂 But those pillows are gorgeous.. and grey! And I just adore grey 😀
Oh I feel brave 😀 I love grey also 🙂
Amazing! Love them!
Me too 🙂 And no guilt over UFO 😀
Brilliant!
