At the moment I am trying to
clear out my flat – which seems to be an annual event. I have been looking for yarn for my
Everything I have Ever Knitted project – but I have also been thinking about
creating yet another throw made from yarn leftover from other projects. I am calling it the 100 Yarns Throw but I
think it will in fact include many more than this.
I have taken Sally Melville’s
advice about using up old yarn – which is to first buy some new yarn to hold
everything together. I bought 6 balls of
Adriafil Stella Alpina classic in a dark brown shade. Because I am not really planning this throw
at all – it is just happening as I find yarn that I like – I am knitting
individual squares which I will sew together afterwards. I am using the dark brown as an edging and I
will then sew all the dark brown edges to each other. Here are some examples of squares that I
have knitted so far.
These are definitely an answer to the question - what can I do with odd bits of yarn that I can't bear to throw away.
