You can crochet beautiful little items from small scraps of leftover yarn—and you’d never guess they were made from leftovers.
Here are a few examples:
Keychain
:
The little moose.
Whether as a Christmas tree ornament, a bag charm, or a gift tag, Rudi with the red nose is sure to be a hit!
Finger puppets:
Hippopotamus, lion, monkey
The jungle animals are especially popular with young children. Wouldn’t that be a great last-minute idea to fill an Advent calendar?
Pencil toppers: Dog, cat, mouse.
Schoolchildren and preschoolers alike love these cute pencil toppers. They make drawing and writing twice as much fun!
Crochet jewelry: Beaded bracelets
.
These crocheted bracelets are back in style among young girls. You can also give them to friends as friendship bracelets.
Bookmarks:
Little Fox
Bookworms are always happy to receive a pretty bookmark, especially if it matches the theme of what they’re reading. The fox is perfect for all animal lovers.
Charm:
Heart with a Little Bear
This year, it’ll probably be difficult again to get the whole family together for Christmas. Show your loved ones that you haven’t forgotten them: You can definitely express that perfectly with this cute heart!
