Leftover yarn: such a headache!
One year has gone, another has just begun.
At the beginning of each year, we often find ourselves making ambitious plans.
We want to do a thousand things, but sometimes our goals seem so big they feel out of reach.
And so, we dedicate ourselves to New Year's resolutions for about a month… at least that's what human behavior experts say.
Then, the end of January arrives, and almost everything returns to normal: the resolutions slowly fade away.
Yesterday was 2024, today is 2025… but is there really any difference (apart from the number on the calendar)? For me, no. So, why not just continue what I’ve already started?
In December, I started organizing. I had wanted to sort out my yarns for a long time, but I kept putting it off.
My house is overflowing with cones, skeins, and balls of every type and color.
Sometimes, all this clutter makes me a little anxious. I move these scraps from one box to another, but I just can't bring myself to throw them away. And how could I? Many are precious yarns, like cashmere and cashmere blend!
Meanwhile, though, I keep buying new yarns for new projects. The result? My collection of scraps grows immensely!
How much I'd love to free my house from all this chaos… but reusing yarns of different thicknesses is not at all simple.
Finally, however, I think I've found a solution! I'm delighted to share it with you. I've combined yarns of various thicknesses, both for hand knitting and for machine knitting, and I've created something unique and useful.
Watch this short video to discover what I've made: it might inspire you to use your yarn scraps creatively!
Happy New Year and Happy Crafting with Your Projects!
