Tiny Knit and Crochet

Let's say that you have a pile of scrap yarn left over from your most excellent projects.  You'd like to start something new, but that pile of odds and ends sits there and mocks you.  What to do with it?

Perhaps you'd like to read the blog post just before this one for inspiration.  But if that doesn't meet get your blood pumping, maybe you'd like to think ahead to the holidays.

For the knitters, we have a book of patterns for mochimochi - Teeny-Tiny Mochimochi by Anna Hrachovec.  For crocheters, we have books of amigurumi - Ami Ami Dogs 2 by Mitsuki Hoshi and Amigurumi Two! by Anna Paula Rimoli.  These are small knitted things most of which have eyes. 




                   

Or you can crochet various kinds of food:

 
 I've even seen patterns for fried eggs and bacon strips.

Don't throw those scraps away.  Have some fun with them. 

Thanks again to Lion Brand Yarn for allowing us to use their photos in our blog.

Happy crafting,
