hmm, as a tablecloth, as a base for embroidery,to do do that origami thing with and make a breadbasket, to turn into a pillowcase, to make into a pegbag, to convert into clothing, to cut up for windowscrims? Any of those jog your memory

haha.


just remembered.



I'm making some knitted gifts for a couple of good friends, some lace knitting. Something wrapped in a cloth pouch as a gift will get the items a bit more respect and make it less likely they would get ruined by bad handling than an item wrapped in a bit of disposable paper. The cloth is to cut up to make these.
