Idea for Christmas: does anyone have old cabled sweaters laying around? Use them to make gift bags!

Great idea! I make Christmas gift bags and we have used them for many many years now - this is cute!

Great wrapping idea. The sleeves make nice wine bottle bags as well. While you are at it, you can use the body of the sweater to make a pillow cover too. Use buttons or a zip and you can toss it in the wash whenever it needs cleaned.

I found this pattern and used it to make a Christmas stocking for a swap. Really easy to do.
