Enjoy the crisp fall air with these 20 Cozy Crafts made from Sweaters! | littleredwindow.com
Well, we got a bit of a wake up call last week. We had been living in a condo for the last 8 years and it was always, always 78 degrees inside, all year long. We probably turned the heat on once a year, if that. And then we moved to our new (125 year old) house. Last week it got to the 40s at night and we were all freeeeeeeezing. I’m talking extra blankets, lots of hot tea, sleeping in socks and long pants at night kind of freezing. We finally caved and turned on the heat but we’re really scared of the heating bill so we’re still keeping it pretty low. And I’m still cold! So I’m doing a round up of cuddly, cozy warm crafts made from yarn and sweaters to fight off the chill around here! I hope it warms you up too!

So many incredible projects. I’d love the slipper boots and the sleeve socks. We have a manufactured home without a foundation under it. We live in Western CO so it gets pretty nippy around here in winter. Our house has a lot of ceramic tile on floors and that is cold. I wear at least 2 pairs of socks with my (faux) ugh boots or my feet freeze. I wear heavy socks and tshirts under my pj’s in winter also as our furnace is in front of house and our room is in back, (single wide). There are vents to bedroom and bathroom but seems by time heat gets to our room it’s not so strong. We have to use a heater in bathroom in winter also or we’d freeze. I take my heavy chenille robe in bathroom to put on as soon as I get dried along with my heavy socks.
Love this post, really handy useful projects to make. I’ll be haunting the thrift stores for sweaters I can use to make some of these projects. Happy week
