If you’ve ever accidentally felted a wool sweater, you know that “uh-oh” feeling in the pit of your stomach when you pull the poor, shriveled thing out of the dryer. Oops! When Rena from The Cheese Thief shrunk a sweater, she found a great way to rescue it, recycling the misshapen garment into a matching hooded infinity scarf and leg warmers. If you don’t have a felted sweater laying around already, this is just one more reason why you should always be watching for wool at the thrift store!

Project estimate:
- Felted sweater, on hand or $1 and up
- Sewing machine, on hand
Total: Free and up
