until your skein of yarn is used up.

I especially love one-skein projects because they’re quick to knit and you can usually get started without having to buy yarn first. Most of us still have a skein of cotton stashed away somewhere. For the featured projects, cotton with approx. 155 m yardage / 50 g only requires about 30–35 grams, so you can easily use up your leftovers for them, too.

There are lots of one-skein patterns for washcloths and dishcloths in my shop; you’ll find the full overview in the collection "Beautiful and very easy".

Here I’ll show you a few different motifs. All patterns require only knit and purl stitches, and every row is written out stitch by stitch, so even beginners will manage very well.

For knitted baby shoes, 50 grams of yarn with a yardage of 125 m is plenty. This model is knitted from the top down. 



Crochet pattern for a headband

The pattern is worked over just one row, and the size can be easily adjusted. 





But there are also large skeins with long yardage—here I knitted a 100-gram skein with 600 meters into a scarf. It has a wonderful lace pattern, and I also find the gradient from dark to light really beautiful.
