During the summer I threw out loads of t-shirts which was to small, not worn enough to throw away, but not new enough to pass on either. So I had to find another use for them.
I decided to cut them into strips to make 'yarn'. I found a tutorial on Instructables (I really searched but I can't find the link anymore!) on how to cut a t-shirt into a continious strip.
Soon the pile of t-shirts turned into a pile of yarn-balls.
The balls sat around my work table for a month or so as I did not have a hook big enough for the thickness of the yarn.
But today I finally got around to trying out my new 10mm hook. Now I have a t-shirt-yarn hexagon. It feels thick and strong but also soft and plyable at the same time.
So what will it become? Any suggestions?

Hello Ansie,
your tin can star hanging is less colored, but still, and maybe more, beautiful.
And about your Tshirts yarn balls, why not hooking a bag, as I did with plastic bags ?
