Hi Cindy, I doubt it lol.
I've heard that cassette tapes or VCR tapes might be worth something to a collector, so, they are getting hard to find in the thrift shops lately.

Good Morning Nella and everyone, a very, very long time ago I crocheted a small placemat out of some old VCR or cassette tape.

Tracy,
Maybe we can do a basket weaving class so you can learn that skill.  Joyce taught me several years ago.  We all purchased the same kit and made a basket.  I have mine sitting in my window sill here in my office.

Maybe.  What I really want is to make a basket with it, but I don't know how.

Tracy,
Can you dry it out and make a wreath with it? Braiding or inter-woven idea?

I'm crocheting a summer hat with raffia, which I learned is a palm fiber, 
and actually looks like a palm leaf, if it stays flat.  I'm almost done!
Now if only we'd get some warm weather.

I'd really like to make something out of the wild grapevine that runs 
rampant in my yard, but haven't figured out how yet.

Hello to all you wonderful crafters out there.



Sorry I'm a day late with this; I got caught up with some things here at the 
farm and forgot all about it.  So, I guess late is better than never. Lol



Today's question comes from Amy, who is a wealth of good questions.



What types of materials have you used to make innovative knitting (or

crocheting) projects in the past and what would you like to try out?



I love this question because I like using different materials on my knitting 
looms.  I made a very nice hair scrunchy using satin cording.  Then I made a 
little draw string bag using macramé.  It was rather hard to work with; I 
broke every finger nail and a loom in the process.  I'm currently working on 
a shopping bag using twine; it has no stretch, so I have to remember to keep 
my knitting loose.



I look forward to reading about everyone's adventures with unusual 
materials.



Happy crafting.



Nella
