Using Up Leftover Yarn, Fabric Scraps, Paper Scraps, and Cardboard Scraps

Dear users, dear authors,
do you have scraps, leftover yarn, fabric scraps, paper scraps, or cardboard scraps? Then get matching patterns now and start your new project.

@Autoren,
2–3 patterns per author are enough. Don’t forget links, images, information, etc. All patterns advertised here must not have been presented in the forum within the past 3 weeks, must have at least 10 sales, and a CR of at least 2%. 

Tiny scraps are often left over from cuff fabric. You can easily sew doll clothes for fashion dolls from them, (even if you have hardly any sewing experience and don’t own a sewing machine)!
With this sewing tutorial for inexperienced sewists, you can sew a top, a mini skirt, and leggings from cuff fabric—no sewing pattern needed. And once that has worked out, you can try the pajamas made from jersey fabric, which come with an easy sewing pattern.
Here’s the sewing tutorial for the doll clothes!




For Chef Charly, a cardboard roll (from toilet paper) was crocheted around. You can remove the upper body and hide a little surprise inside the cardboard roll (maybe a voucher for a meal together or for a special cooking class?). To make Charly, besides the cardboard roll you’ll need about 20 g each of cotton yarn in white and dark gray, plus scraps in skin tone and red, and a little mohair yarn for the beard.

And only leftover yarn was used for the polar landscape with an igloo, penguins, and a snowman, too. You’ll need most of the yarn for the igloo, but even that is only about 30 g. Much smaller leftover amounts are enough for the penguins and the snowman. With a little craft stuffing and a decorative sled, you can conjure up a wonderful winter landscape that still looks great after Christmas!
Here’s the crochet pattern for the igloo, penguins, and the snowman!

I like to crochet doll clothes for my granddaughters’ little dolls from colorful leftover yarn. They enjoy the wide selection of clothing, and I have a meaningful use even for the smallest leftover yarn. All the pieces can be combined beautifully. And the doll clothes are also very popular as gifts for children’s birthday parties or for daycare.

I hope you have lots of fun making them.
Warm regards from Ina

Do you also constantly have individual tissues in your handbag or thousands of opened packs lying around your home?
That ends now!

With this tissue holder, you can collect those orphaned tissues and have your handbag and your home tidy again.

One especially positive thing is that when you take out the tissues, there is no crackling plastic film.

So you can take out tissues almost silently when you don’t want to disturb anyone,
e.g. in class, during a meeting, or on other occasions where noises are disruptive.

You can crochet it in one or multiple colors and use up your leftovers that way.
Approx. 32–35 g of cotton (125 m/50 g) will be plenty.
For a 2-color version, less than 20 g per color is already enough.
You can also use other materials or crochet every row in a different color.
Let your imagination run wild!
