How Clever!



I just read about this nifty website called Reknit. You send them your old sweater and they will knit it into a scarf. Voila! That is what I call re-purposing. It reminds me of that story, "Joseph Had a Little Overcoat," where a thrifty and clever man fashions different pieces from his coat as it wears out. Joseph starts with an overcoat, makes it into a jacket, then a vest, then a handkerchief and so on.
