Susie Johns' rainbow cover is great for fans of upcycling; simply clean an old tin or canister and then jazz it up with this pretty crocheted sleeve.

It's perfect for your desk or as a knitting needle container and the unusual spike stitch effect is created simply by working half trebles into a stitch two rows below the current one. Susie has used a cocoa tin but you can easily adjust the pattern to fit a shorter or taller tube.
