Spring’s not quite here yet (are you still covered with snow?), and you know you need a new scarf to get you through a few more weeks of grey weather! Enter this clever no-sew low-sew scarf made from a recycled sweater — any sweater from your closet or local thrift store will do! Any avid thrift store shopper will tell you that the sweater aisle is jammed full of sweaters that are begging to be repurposed. This project is by Larissa at Just Another Day in Paradise.

Project Estimate:
- Old sweater, on hand or $1 and up
- Coordinating yarn, $1 and up
- Needle and thread, on hand
- Sewing machine, optional
Total: $1 and up

This is ADORABLE but you might want to remove the “NO SEW” from your post. You definitely have to sew to make this scarf.

Thanks, Jessica! I guess you could make it with hot glue, but who wants to do that?? :) I updated.
