HOW TO RECYCLE T SHIRTS : T SHIRT PRINTING PRICE. How To Recycle T Shirts
Reuseable Hot Drink Cup Sleeve This is the project that inspired it all. I made bunches of recycled t-shirt yarn just so I can experiment with making reusable hot drink cup sleeves. The paper sleeves used in most coffee stores are made with 60% post consumer waste, but more often than not, these mostly recycled sleeves are discarded in the trash. I made this with the thick yarn and a large crochet hook and worked in the round through the back look only, to kind of give it a bit of corrugated cardboard look. After testing it, it insulates fingers from the scalding liquid from within while keeping hands gently warmed! Recycled T-Shirt Bag Progress I cut the hem off of the bottom of the shirt then cut in a spiral up until the armholes (or until I slipped and cut the whole thing off early in a few cases) making one long strip of fabric. I knit an improvised market bag on size 13 needles. Still trying to figure out how long I want it and what to do for a handle.
