I know you are all waiting with bated breath on an update on my tea bag strings! You are probably losing sleep thinking about it. I've saved every string since January first in anticipation of knitting something from them ala Jo and her scarves.
I won't get a scarf, I will get probably a bookmark! But as of now, this morning, there are 10 grams. Sometimes I make loose tea, sometimes I use bags that don't have strings, most times there are strings so I can't do the math and think of how many I'll have. Jo measures by weight. Smart.
Now that we're coming into the home stretch with these I will re-read Jo's post on how she does this. Knit with sewing needles? If only I knew how to crochet.
you're a stronger woman than i....or more patience or something....lol
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I think I would have wound them as I went iI dont envy you untangling them
ReplyDeleteOh goody. You are a quarter of the way there. Haha…
ReplyDeleteI use 4.5mm needles (old size 7).. it gives a nice loose look and feel.
Definitely the tying up does my fingers in. Good idea to do them when watching tv as it is something that takes a long time .
Haha! we were only talking about my blogging friend Jo at Patch today about how she saves tea bag strings and knits them up. They though she was either crazy or very patience . Now I have two blogging friends knitting tea bag strings......
