Tin Can Pencil Pots

Tin Can Pencil Pot

A great way to recycle your empty tins and brighten up a desk at home or work.

It’s best to use the normal tins, not the ones with the ring pull as they will have a sharp edge.

Materials Aran weight yarn. I use cotton, but acrylic will work just as well.

5mm crochet hook Normal tin like a baked bean tin cleaned and dried with the label removed.

My tins measure approximately 7cm x 11cm give or take a mm or two.
