Making a Crochet Scrap Yarn Blanket

[@tjfaulk8815]

Great idea I have a few to tear out myself

[@vajee5]

Thank you so much for sharing your unfinished projects with us. Now I don’t feel so guilty about not finishing some of mine! You have beautiful colors there; Your scrap blankets will be lovely.

After seeing this part with the collection of ufos I don't feel so bad! I am doing the same thing but with the smaller pieces I am making plain small granny squares that will be joined with a contrast color to make lapghans to donate. Larger lengths of yarn will go to the stripe afghans. Thank you for the video!!!

Another interesting way to use up all these parts you've already made is to lay them out on a large area like a table or bed then work out how to crochet them all together to make one or two new completed patchworked crochet blankets. I've done that before adding extra new crochet bit inbetween in order to fill in any gaps.

Thank you for the idea of more yarn to use, I have quite a few unfinished projects in my closet. Great way to use up all that yarn instead of just storing it away to just sit there.

What a wonderful idea I have several projects I can use.

[@aprilmcarthur4250]

Can I do that with items that have been washed!

[@suziwainwright848]

Thanks for the great ideas.

[@marymaggiefender2093]

I do that too. I crochet and knit. Varigated yarn and solid yarn pattern or color theme of different yarns. For example blues and red white that I cut and section how much I want the cut and join next color but not all sections are even lengths. Awesome video btw.

[@sally-annebrown1298]

I do that too. Currently looking at doing two girls blankets for my next project- for the cot.

Do you chain at end of row and what chain do you start in after you turn? Do you add border?

[@marialuisabecerra4867]

Fantastico👍👍

[@crochetcrazylady9905]

oh man, I have so much yarn its crazy~

[@ellenrose2533]

Wonderful

[@DaniSInNC]

I can definitely relate. I've only made one scrap blanket and that was years ago, but my grown daughters still have fond memories of that blanket. I'm in the process now of trying to use up the small amount of yarn I have on hand so I can make a fresh start and try new yarns. A good bit of it is from projects that I never finished, like what you showed.

Do the scrap yarns have to be the same weight per blanket, eg - only dk or only chunky?

[@letyreyna8473]

Would love a vid how you do it if you can please

[@mypoochiebaby]

I filmed a video some time back explaining how I make them: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXjSmH6af7mcqZI

Hi can you tell me how much wool I need to make a king size blanket

[@karenmoran1259]

Aww please can anyone tell me what size crochet hook do I use for a rainbow blanket large sized with chunky wool please.please kindly let me know asap please

[@lydianannen5111]

i never had any yarn left when get projects done. side that you don't know the yarn you used so if you wash it you could have a smaller blanket.

[@kaysmith4558]

Are you double crocheting?

[@mypoochiebaby]

Yes... It's a double crochet. Here is the video I previously uploaded explaining how I make them: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXjSmH6af7mcqZI

[@gabrielleangelica1977]

Make other things out of the unfinished projects: table runners, bed 🛌 scarves, table mats, pillows etc...

[@mariefakir4576]

👍🏼🇫🇷

[@judithhaight2571]

You talk too much, I really don't care where the yarn came from

[@Atomicl3itch99]

You’re very rude, Judith. She can talk about her yarn all she’d like!
