FPN Green Teams - Upcycling: Knitting with yarn from old t-shirts
Faculty Green Team led events are always a big success, it was no different with FPN Green Team's knitting workshop!
On Wednesday, January 22, 2025, the FPN Green Team held a fun and hands-on knitting workshop with a creative twist – instead of using traditional yarn, participants made their own by repurposing old t-shirts. The idea was simple but impactful: transform fabric that would otherwise end up as waste into something useful and beautiful.

The workshop was a big hit, drawing a lively crowd of people eager to learn how to turn old clothes into new creations. Whether they were experienced knitters or complete beginners, everyone seemed to enjoy the process. It wasn’t just about learning a new skill—it was about connecting with others and discovering ways to reduce waste in a fun, meaningful way. The FPN Green Team’s event was a reminder that sustainability doesn’t have to be complicated—it can be enjoyable, creative, and community-centered.
