**ALL CONTENT © 2009-2010 Ruby’s Upcycle Designs™** Ruby's Upcycle Designs is a cheeky and eco friendly workshop creating custom handknits, funky jewelry, (and occasional vintage finds as I peruse estate sales, junk shops & more). Rubys loves to knit handmade, luxurious goods using eco-friendly fibers! Many of my yarns come straight from the animal, cleaned, of course! Let me know if I can design or create a custom handknit piece for you. New designs added weekly!
