Shred old cloths. Like into tiny pieces. Makes good stuffing.
you could use yarn scraps as stuffing.
New stuffing is coming on Friday!!!
I primarily do blankets. It’s almost time to start making socks and slippers though
Just because it’s summer doesn’t mean it won’t get cold again eventually lol
I agree that making tops is a good idea though.
I want to make socks, I just haven’t been able to find any good free sock crochet patterns…
Old pillows work, too. And when my sister had to throw away her old beat up recliner that her 5 kids pretty much destroyed, we ended up being able to get 10 lbs of fluff out of the arms, back, and seat.
That’s amazing!!!
Oooh!!! I have one!
It’s just a simple single crochet sock with an add-on heel and toe and it works up super quick, especially with worsted yarn. Heck, it’s even pretty fast with sock weight
I can’t find the original pattern I first found in 08, but this is pretty close to exactly the same technique
That’s great, tysm!!!
My pleasure
I love sharing
i might just use this sock pattern once i get some smaller hooks
It’s a great sock pattern… I’m sad that it’s a paid one and not just available for free use. Lemme check and see if I can find the one that was like that but free.
I’ve been on his website before and I could have sworn that it was a free pattern! I wonder if he had to make it paid to buy groceries or whatever…
Heck… I might have to make one myself if I can’t find the original super easy one
It would be a free pattern of course
And it’s crocheted in the round. I make them free-style for me and the family every year, so it shouldn’t be too hard to translate that into a pattern/recipe…
ooh if you do post your own pattern, please let me know. I’d be willing to test the pattern for you if need be as im sure your a great designer
Please tag me if you ever make one!!
Of course!!! I’ve got it named and basic-info’d in my patterns right now. I have 2 1/3 patterns to finish testing (and I can get those done tonight) and then I’ll get to the socks
oh how exciting! good luck with your tests
For sure! I’ll try to have it written out by Friday
It’s super simple and more a “recipe” than a pattern, lol
As soon as I’m done testing I’ll get it up and running!
Finished my first no stuffing project since I ran out! I love it
I’m in love with hexagon granny squares now lol
OMG its beautiful
Tysm!!
