This week I've tried to use up some of the tails leftover from sewing parts of amigurumi projects together. Most of these are 1-3 m in length. I have been thinking of trying to make some more things for my children's dollhouse.

Yarn scrap challenge #1 - 5 uses for leftover yarn tails

Yarn scrap challenge #1 - 5 uses for leftover yarn tails
I didn’t really like the thought of throwing away all my little bits of yarn, whether really short bits from weaving in ends, or slightly longer bits from amigurumi projects where the pattern recommended leaving a “long tail” to sew something together and I had been too generous with the amount that I left (and still am). Therefore, I decided to find some ways to use up those little bits of scrap yarn. Here are a few ways of using these that I’ve found so far. I suspect there will be more blog posts on this once I've found a few more things to do with my scraps (though not of those will necessarily be crochet related).
