February was all about creating new from old. Up-cycling old jumpers, either from your own wardrobe or from a charity shop that you have spotted that has cool stripes or even garish patterns is a quick way to create a cool hat.
This is a fast project which is great for beginners upwards – everyone created a wearable hat within a couple of hours.

How cool is this hat – you wouldn’t know it was a jumper!
