I love this idea and the finished product! I have such a bad habit of keeping every little scrap even if I don't know what to do with it, but this is an inspiration to make something with them!

Andrea! This is so figging adorable! I love how it turned out and so great you saved those fibers from the landfill.

Absolutely just wow. I always throw all my scraps in when I card fleece for spinning. This is so great. ❤

I have loved every video/vlog you have ever done but this one is just incredible! Sustainability is near and dear to my ♥️ You saved beautiful yarn scraps from a landfill and have an amazing jacket to show for it. I’m about to put a 30 meter pre-wound warp onto my Saori loom (inspired by your 30 meters in 30 days video) Now I know what to do with all my yarn scraps. Well done🙌🏼♥️🙌🏼

This is so neat! Now I have an idea of what to do with my scrap yarn.

I do the exact same thing with all my loom waste and random scraps from different projects by making a giant ball and then weaving with it. It's so fun to see the random patterns and colors and nothing is ever wasted! I like seeing what you have made with your random bits and pieces!

I've missed your videos so much. I know it takes a lot of time on your part to film and edit, i love watching you work out the entire creative process

That is super cute

@lavendercottagefibrearts 11 ай бұрын

it's simple but so so effective!!! this is what I love about saori weaving that you can go crazy mixing different fibres and textures and it somehow just works together. i also love that you can use up such small lengths that would otherwise go to waste. thank you for rescuing these samples and giving them a new life!

Andrea, this was such a great randomly creative project to do after another intense year of school with projects requiring detailed planning and execution. It must have been so much fun! The jacket came out great. Also, love your hair this length! 😊

What a great idea! I am still a fairly new weaver, and I am surprised that so many different types of yarns can be woven together successfully. I have a wide variety of yarns in my stash that I would love to use them up in various weaving projects. How will you care for your jacket in the future? Will you just hand wash and lay it flat to dry, or will it be machine washable? Thank you.
