How fabulous is this? Dutch artist Greetje van Tiem spun yarn from newspaper and used it to knit and weave with.
I tried knitting with paper earlier in the year but couldn't get a loose enough tension - spinning it; now that would be fun. Curious Weaver explains how she did it.

That is amazing. Putting your own 'spin' on the news. hehe. I am amazed at how clever people are. There is hope for us as a race after all.
I would like to try that...

Just great! Yarn from newspaper! Merry Christmas Taph, you are an inspiration and the 7 things will continue well into the New Year (for some inexplicable reason more came in than went out this week - especially from Bendigo)
Have a wonderful Christmas and a safe and happy New Year!
