Adults like modern children's things no less than kids. That’s why clothes are kept even when the son or daughter has already grown out of them. And it’s a pity to throw it away, and I don’t want to save it in vain. And they accumulate very quickly, especially tights.
And don’t rush to throw them in the trash! After all, unnecessary children's tights can be given a second life! We offer 5 ways to use them.
Method one - make bicycle shorts or leggings
Tights usually do not have time to wear out; high-quality knitwear remains durable. They're just growing 
children quickly, and you have to buy longer products. That's why we continue to wear them! Yes, yes, first of all we will try to use them as clothing.
We suggest you save a little on your family budget and turn your tights that have become too short into stylish leggings. After all, your fidget also needs a lot of them.
First you need to cut both toe pieces to the heel. After this, we cut off a small part from the sock, which we will later use to decorate the product.
We process the cut on the tights using a sewing machine or by hand. Then we sew the frill along the edge of the leggings.
ADVICE. The new thing can be decorated with buttons, rhinestones, ribbon bows, lace or flowers.
Method two - use it for finishing clothes
Children grow up not only from tights, but also from all other things. If there is little time left until the end of the season, there is no point in buying new products: in just six months they will definitely be small. You can extend the life of jackets with the help of a little trick. We add a knitted cuff to the sleeves, and if necessary, add an elastic band along the bottom edge.
This is where “unnecessary” tights come in!
REFERENCE. The advantage of tights is not only in the quality of the material, but also in the variety of colors.
You will definitely be able to find ones that match your children's jacket.
Getting the job done is easy. The tights are cut into strips, after which one piece is sewn and attached to the sleeve. You can sew it yourself. Similarly, we sew the cuffs to the second sleeve, as well as to the bottom of the clothing (if necessary).
Method three - making toys together with your child
Tights are an excellent material for joint creativity.
You can use them to make various soft toys, or, for example, a cute Florik. This cute evergreen toy will happily live in a child's room.
And you and your baby will have a great time making it. Rest assured, the memory of your toys will warm your son or daughter all his life.
Method four - make storage bags
Comfortable storage bags are obtained from the top of the products. It is cut off and the cut line is sewn together to form a soft bag.
Small toys, cars or balls will fit here.Sew on a few buttons and make some loops and that's it!
Method five - knitting rugs
A textile rug is simply necessary in a family where a small child is growing up. He often plays on the floor, and such a rug can be easily moved to any place where the baby is.
Needlewomen know many options for sewing, knitting or weaving such rugs. Surely your grandmother will be glad that her skill came in handy! And he can easily teach his granddaughter to make these on her own.
Keep in mind: your pets will love these too! But a lot of tights have accumulated! Therefore, you will need a lot of rugs: for kids and cats and dogs, for home and for the dacha!
As you can see, before you put the tights on dust cloths, they will still serve!
