No need to wait for my scraps to grow. I can't wait to get busy using my overflowing new-yarn stash to make some great looking, unique things. Also, I'll be following your blog from now on.

I have knit a scarf from leftovers and started a fingering weight blanket, but other than a swatch blanket, I had nothing for heavier weight yarn scraps. This is a wonderful idea! I also like that it's not a perfect rainbow.

Also, on the wrong side you'll have to bring the yarn to the front when you slip.Dayana Knitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04193314551611780584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2756650113719377578.post-53494249466487089112015-05-06T18:14:12.361-04:002015-05-06T18:14:12.361-04:00I've just written down the 4 row repeat and pu...I've just written down the 4 row repeat and put it into my bag of 4 ply oddments.
