Yet another great project I’m want to do for a long time already. Craftaholics Anonymous explained very well on her blog how to make these pom poms. I love the colors she used, but of course you can make them in any color you’ll desire. If you would like to order your t-shirt yarn you can click here.
If you make the pom poms a bit bigger, you can use them as a pillow.
Still on the run, searching for free patterns made with Zpagetti t-shirt yarn, which you can buy here, I stumbled upon this great doily rug pattern. This pattern is from Creative Jewish Mom
Actually you can use every doily pattern you can find and when you make it with Zpagetti t-shirt yarn, it will become a rug, because you’ll use bulky yarn and a thick crochet needle.
Another great project you can make with T-shirt yarn, from our own brand The shirt yarn and we sell it here, you’ll need about 1000 gram
You’ll need a 12 mm crochet needle, if you don’t have one you can buy it here
Note!!! sc is a single crochet in US and a double crochet in UK
How to make the Cat basket:

When I find a pattern which I can make with The shirt yarn, I want to try and share it.
Most of the patterns on my blog are made with The shirt yarn.
The shirt yarn is recycled t-shirt fabric and available in a lot of colors, I sell this in my shop www.lvly.nl and people from al over the world can buy, this great material here.
Of course you are free to use any other kind of bulky yarn as long as it matches the needle size, for this pattern.
Do you also want to make this cute baby hat from Rockin’ like a hermit crab, please click HERE
To make this cowl I used two skeins Ribbon Xl which you can buy here. I love the ribbon XL because it’s made from recycled cotton and because it’s cotton it doesn’t itch and is not to warm, but feel free to use any other kind of material that matches knitting needles size 17
Cast on 40 stitches en work in garter stitch, the width of the work has to measure aprox 16 inches. Than work in garter stitch till the work measures aprox 36 inches and cast of the stitches.
Put your work flat on the table and give it a twist, like shown in the pictures and close the short sides with an overhand stitch
You can wear it in different kind of styles
If you have any questions feel free to send me a message
Have fun making your own chunky cowl!!!

The pouf is made with t-shirt yarn, which you can buy at for example Etsy and you have to crochet this pouf with at least a needle size that’s 10 mm thick. You can use a thicker needle but make sure your yarn matches the needle size. Thicker yarn and needle will only make the pouf bigger.
For a pouf 50cm cross cut you’ll need two 135 yard bundles, for a pouf 60cm cross cut you’ll need three
The pouf is crochet in a spiral, so you have to make sure that at the beginning of each row, you put a piece off material so you know where the row ends and starts
Chain 7 and close the chain with a slip stitch to a circle
– row 1, crochet 12 st. in the circle
– row 2, crochet 2 st. in every st. repeat 12x (=24)

I have to admit, this is a tutorial on how to make a pouf from Pickles and not my own, but I love it. Pickles has a very good pattern and if I find the time I really want to make this.
To make this great toy for your dog I used, 12 strings t-shirt yarn from about 1,2 yard long.
How to make t-shirt yarn from an old shirt is well explained in this You Tube video
You devide the string in four parts from 3 strings and start the scoubidou technic, one I did with the round technic
and one with the straight technic
When you want to see the full explenation of the technic you can find it here.
Our dog loves this toy. We also sell them and give our profits to the seeing eye dogs.
We now also make them with Macramé yarn en the results you can see HERE
