Melanie,

I actually keep them.. i can't get myself to take them apart.. Så I keep them safe, untill my kids maby have their own kids..

I can't get myself to give them to other kids, because I know how much time and money has gone into those sweaters..

Hugs

Line,

I understand.

I'm not sure I could take them apart, either. Though maybe if there's one you find particularly cute, you could repurpose it into a felted purse?

And I completely understand why you wouldn't want to give them to other kids, either.

Hugs,
Melanie

Melanie,

Most of this yarn is superwash... So it can't be felted.. :p
I asked of this specific type of yarn, so that i would be able to wash them in the machine on other programs than the wool one, to get them completely clean if the boys spilled something on them.. :p

Hugs

Line,

That's so smart!

Since felting is out, how about just repurposing into something like a purse or tote...doesn't have to be felted.

Line,

I understand.

I would have trouble with that, too.

Hugs,
Melanie
