I have always had a thing for pinback buttons, brooches & badges…I love them huge, I love them tiny, I love them kitschy, I love them silly & sweet. Some I don’t love at all, but still keep them..how can you throw away something so useful!
Here is a super project to put those old pinback buttons to a good new use & show your love of knitting! I have yarns in my stash I have put off using for a project, because I love the color & feel of them so much, I can’t bear to see them gone (you know how it is) now I can always have a little wearable swatch of that irreplaceable/extinct yarn.
It’s also a perfect use for those little left over scraps or small sample balls. I can’t stop making these…they are seriously quick, done in a snap & have just enough quirk to be cool!
I was never a girl scout… I really tried to be, really I did. Well sort of…I went to 1 meeting and that was it..but I remember the little neck ties & being envious of my sis who had the uniform (knee-highs and all) & those lovely, lovely merit badges.
just a side note: any of my charts will fit perfectly on the merit badge. I made a sweet little owl chart too! Just click here to get your merit badge and here to get the sweet little owl chart downloads!
Very SWEET little badges! Thanks for giving the charts for free!!
These are soooo sweet! I saw one on your Ravelry projects page, and just about went nutty. Project for tonight, I guess. Love your blog…
