Dear users, dear designers,
leftovers / leftover yarn / paper scraps / cardboard scraps / fabric scraps are far too good to throw away. In the shop you’ll find lots of patterns for them, and here in the thread you can show off your leftover projects and of course upload photos of the result.

If you’d like to earn or defend the honorary title of Leftover Champion, simply present one finished leftover project per month. Have fun!

I just finished my January scrap project. It’s a coaster that my girlfriend asked me to make.

I’ve turned some of my leftover yarn into decorative flowers. It’s a wonderful project to crochet in the evening while relaxing on the couch.

I’ve been crocheting with leftover yarn again. This c2c pattern works great with these squares.
I found a better way to join them together in a video. It looks a bit neater somehow. This was so much fun that my tunic had to wait. It turned into a small pillowcase, and my pillow fits perfectly inside. I’ll add a ribbon or button as a closure.

Andrea, I love how you used your scraps—the pillow turned out beautifully.

Thank you so much, Marion. It only took me a day to make this.

Every now and then, I need little side projects to work on in between. Crocheting on just one piece all the time wears on my patience. This way, it’s more fun.

Best regards, Andrea

Wow, Andrea, that turned into a lovely pillow. A really great leftover project—you did a great job.

With these candle rings for taper candles, you can bring a little spring magic into your home—and, of course, use up a little leftover yarn in the process.

I’m currently crocheting my scraps into nests for wild animals. This is the first and largest one.

The second nest for wild animals was also crocheted from leftover yarn.

I’ve got something to show again too. I’m still working through my leftover yarn. These mosaic grannies and mini c2c are perfect for that.

I’ve also finished a project made from leftovers.
It fits nicely in the corner.
