I knit for therapy.  Anything finished that arrives at the end is a bonus.  Of course, like so many things, I am excellent at the theory. 
I have been toying with the idea of knitting a bag out of something durable (possibly carrier bags) for shopping.  Then one of the random subscriptions I have threw up this.

It is knitting a bag out of strips of old t-shirt.  Now t-shirts get very grotty by the end, so it is a great way of using up something that is rarely fit for the charity shop. 
I am not likely to use it as it involves picking up lots of stitches which I loathe, but it is an interesting idea.  I may have to adapt.
