These two cuties from Martha Stewart are made from old sweaters (cost: given that I’ve been saving a couple of Tim’s for a project like this: ZERO). These I have in mind for my friends with new babies. The complete how-to is found here. More handmade ideas here.

That Martha.
God bless Martha, what would we do without her crazy overachiever-ness?
And those are just adorable. Now I need to add those to my to do list.
I sew love this!

Too cute! and thanks for the link. Perfect gift for big girls like us too right?
How Divine!
holy guacamole….these are adorable
I saw these and completely fell in love with them. I made a couple of the pigs last weekend and they turned out really cute. They’re pretty easy to make.
Cute!
Um–cutest things ever! I just love the idea of ‘upcycling’ old sweaters for projects like this. Martha also has a how-to for pillows from old sweaters…I might have to take a trip to goodwill and hit up the sweater rack!
These are so cute. I don’t know how to sew with a machine, though…wonder if I could had sew them (in all my spare time!)
They are so adorable! Would be great to see pictures of yours once they’re done!
awesome! these are just too cute.
super cute! Thanks for the link!
You might want to felt the knits before cutting out the pieces, especially if they’re woolen. This way you could most likely wash the animals when they get dirty with little risk of the material shrinking.
Love your blog!
These are adorable! I especially love the argyle pig!
Oooh, cuddly and delicious! I love recycling sweaters and the kiddies will love it, too…
I am TOTALLy going to have to try to make the PIG!
Thanks everyone!! I’ll post my animals when they are done!
It’s very straightforward to find out any matter on web as compared to books, as I found this article at this website.
