Eco Fashion: Upcycled Wool Handbag

Handbag by FeltSewGood
I love the simplistic look and feel of this bag! Even more, I love that it's made of a recycled wool sweater! It's quite the eye feast.

The Craftiest Yarn Around


In some lovely orange and grey. CraftyYarn always knows how to recycle yarn just the way I like it:

Dark gray wool blended with light blue soysilk for a soft, steely gray blend, with orange mohair accents throughout. Contains mill end fiber and soysilk (made from a by-product of tofu manufacture) -- 100% recycled content.
