Leftover yarn? What to do? Here are some ideas...

So many possibilities!  Seriously! Don't know if others feel the same way but I know I have created so many cute and practical items with my left over yarn.

From gift card holders, small flowers, mini pompoms on paperclips, coasters and the list can go on and on.  I have added something else...crochet butterflies as well...here is one of those adorable butterflies.

As I always say think of the all the endless possibilities you have with leftover yarn. Hopefully it will inspire you to make some of your own. Happy crocheting!!!

Crochet Ear Warmers


Here are some of my latest creations on ear warmers.   I have decided instead of sewing the flower on I would have it where you can remove the  flower and use it on anything else.  I personally use the flower when I want to – not always but that’s just me.


What I like about making these is that you will keep your forehead and ears warm and not have to worry about messing up your hair.

I crochet these with soft acrylic yarn in a double stitch crochet pattern.  I continue to do this until I have reach approximately 16-18 inches in length and then I sew the ends together with the yarn needle.  I also use a little dab of Fray Check at the tiny ends where I cut off the yarn. 
 
I like making these in a variety of colors, thickness, width and style.  You can add buttons or trimming to them.  Also, you can utilize your leftover yarn from other projects to make these.
