Seconds! Great show, you guys!
Oh my I love that 3 things out of just one sweater. You all are so great. Keep up the great work. I guess I am going to goodwill today.
I always love it most when you guys do extremely lame thing at the end. It makes the me feel at home.
Yea, triple recycling! That's great how you used pretty much the whole sweater for this. I'm amazed as always. Cute doggy at the end!!
you guys kick DIY's ass! Keep up the rapping, it suits you well.

excellent work you threadbangers....that is showing how to be ecos-selfish to the max...Keep on showing viewers that what they own has so many incarnations. As you have just expertly showsn. A sweater is never just a sweater.
They were all so easy! And they looked great too! Great stuff.
Oops forgot to write, can you guys do a waistcoat? You know, the sleeveless kind that guys normally wear under suit jackets.
awesome, I am so gonna do this for my friend for Christmas. Yay for Christmas gift solutions!
Yay mittens!
great episode........i liked it all but the edging of the poncho, just never been a fan of lettuce edge...but still a great show
Thats is so awesome!!! I love that tie cuff you had on Corrine!!!
great! i lob it!
you guys aren't exactly the greatest beatboxers. Don't do it again.
HEY! What has happened to Andrew? I love his stuff. It has an awesome look. Plus, he is pretty much the master of steeze. You should get some more of his stuff on here!
I agree, I miss his episodes.
awsome! I've been needing a beanie! and mittens!
ok so whos pink sewing machine was that?
cause im totally gonna steal it
This is great! Now i noe wat 2 make 4 ppl 4 x-mas
sweet!! ok so I was already going to look for a totally 80's sparkley sweater to make a scoodie out of but now I've got to get a few sweaters so I can make um all!!! (I feel the odd urge to sing the "gotta catch them all" from pokemon
Hey guys, I love that idea!
But, I have a question. I was looking at some scarfs at supermaggie.com, and they said something about felting. What is it, and is it hard? Because their scarves were tight.
Also, could you explain sewing machines? I have one, but it's ancient and it is missing a needle, and I can't figure out how to work it. Thanks!
Sorry, I don't know where else to post the questions..
Felting is when you have something knitted made out of wool, and you wash it in hot water and stuff and it shrinks. Search for it on yahoo.
You can felt stuff in the washing machine on hot with just a really small amount of laundry soap. I've done it with thrifted sweaters and it works great! They can't be worn as sweaters anymore, but now I can cut them up and make stuff. Good question.
you can make awesome wrapping paper with:
1. grease proof wax baking paper
2. anything you want, flower petals, leaves, small scraps of material
3. your iron
just put one sheet wax side up, add your filling and place sheet wax face down, now just iron.
the wax will fuse and the stuff in side will show through, it looks really cool, can you guys put this on the show PLEASE!!
definitely didn't know that wa leo[pard print at first.
you guys are my heroes!
Wow~ I always wondered how to make a beanie hat! I can't wait to attempt to hit up the Good Will near-by and find a sweater to test this out
Okay, dumb question - with the new look of the forums I can't figure out how to sign in!!!! How do I sign in? I can see the register link for new members but I can't find the log in link... =( I know this is the wrong place for this question but I don't know where else to put it...
Not stupid! I just tried logging off. OK - I think you need to click on a post, and then the logon box asking for yr e-mail and pasword shows up. I think. Er, I'll let Ian know.
awesome! too bad its summer here in aus :P
will try it in 6 months though!
I ran across this site a few years ago. It seems Andrea has become much bigger but check it out...

YAY! Mittens! I'm very thankful for the hat idea though. I cut the sleeves off a sweater for leg warmers, and couldn't figure out what to do with the rest. Though I would like to make a vest. Is that really hard?
Also, I love the pink sewing machine, the tie cuff, and the adorable chihuahua at the end!
Woah, who knew the rapping would get such a response?!
Never stop rapping. Ever.
Please don't steal my sewing machine. But you can totally come over and use it with us.
Mad props, dudes.
very nice
i noticed that there were some scraps. it would be cool to make a leopard wristband.
good call. i still have the scraps, maybe a cuff could happen. i like your thinking, twisted twin. use it all up. no waste, no trash. nice.
loved the Holly Jolly How To: Beanies, Poncho & Mittens!
Not to, uh, put a damper to your day... but that does'nt look like lepoard.
Love the hat, glove, poncho video.
Yeah...okay...stick to your day job guys! lol j/K
Great project!

lovin the lettuce edge -- do you stretch the fabric as you sew?
Sweetness! I've been looking for mitten patterns...but keep running into nasty words like 'gusset' and 'fourchette" which serve to cockblock a craftee and intimidate an amateur! Thanks so much for not getting psychological on me!
