Thanks for looking Zygotegifts. Would you be prepared to share with us how you make the paper yarn? It really interests me personally in relation to my art. I use string a lot but I like that the newspaper would give me a smoother line.

Hi!

I "invented" it at home and then googled it and found that I was not an inventor at all!! I found this: greenupgrader.com/2138/handspun-recycled-newspaper-yarn/

Some people use a spindle too, I have seen that on youtube...

Try it out!

Hi Zygotegifts

Your work is really lovely.
Thank you so much for sharing the link for newspaper yarn-fascinating!
I never thought I'd want to use a spindle for my own yarn, but now
I'm really interested in the whole idea of recycling paper (or whatever) for knitting.
