Old T-Shirt + Scissors = Free Chunky Wool

Chunky wool is expensive so when I found this tutorial today I couldn't resist myself from scounging through my wardrobe of clothes that I haven't worn in years because of the hoarder mentality of "it might come in handy down the line". Of course you're not only limited to t-shirts. Any material that is a little stretchy, that curls when being pulled will do. The yellow one did't curl when tugged but I still think it came out well when knitted.

I did a few swatches just to see how well they'd end up knitting. I think it's only appropriate for hard wearing things like rugs, baskets, cases etc.
