Hey, I'm looking for a pattern for my scrap/stash yarn - a mix of RRSS and various fancy yarns. I've done scrap afghans before, but am not a fan of big projects...

any ideas out there?

Thanks!

The Oh Scrap Wrap looks like a fun way to dispose of stash. http://www.vickiehowell.com/2006/07/oh-scrap-wrap-from-knitty-gritty.html

Little Dity Bags
Scarfs
Neck warmers
Applique
Holiday decorations
Squares to donate to charity
Hair scrunchies
Colorful purses
Colorful shawl (either keep or give)
Rug (either all different colors at once, or change colors)
Bookmarks
Fridgies
Small ami's
Hats
Mittens
Gloves with each finger a different color
Leg warmers
Slippers (I saw a pattern in a magazine done in 2 strands, each row a different color--super cute)
Flowers (then put in a vase and display)
Pet toys
Kids toys
Hair accessories
Belts
Jewelry (there is some out there with fun fur--not my favorites, but some ideas)
iPod or Phone or Camera Cozies--really any type of cozie or cover
Wallet

Since you don't want little afghan pices, how about a 3SUB (3 Strand Ugly Blanket-- it's not really ugly). Check out the CAL Scrap Afghan CAL (http://www.crochetville.org/forum/showthread.php?t=43937&highlight=3sub) Super fast and great way to use up left over yarn.

Do a search on here for "magic ball" that's where you take several little balls of yarn, tie them together to make one giant multi colored ball. Things turn out cute this way.
