Yarn scraps…

Crochet 🧶

What do you all do with your yarn scraps?

I recently started collecting any scraps (min. 2” & any length I didn’t think I had a possibility to use elsewhere), and every once in a while when I have a little collection pile I add on to a freehand crochet piece.

It has no set design, I just started with a mc and each round I make sure to either add inc’s or points with ch’s so each round will stay flat. It’s totally random and I only decide what to st each time I pick it up to work on it and eventually over time it’ll grow and eventually I’ll either turn it into a rug or frame it if I like it enough :sweat_smile:

I use the really small pieces as stuffing, but I’ve been creating a new series of patterns called Scrapbusters, so most of my scraps go to designing new patterns now.

My scraps are currently sitting a bag. I use them as stuffing occasionally. If they’re long enough, I ball them up and throw them in a basket to use for smaller projects. I think your scrappy circle is a neat idea :blush: you could totally post updates on this post if you keep at it. I’m intrigued :star_struck:
