I think plenty of people would pay for the frogged yarn. I have a long cotton sweater I was going to take to goodwill. Now I'm thinking I may frog it instead! I'm starting to itch to make a dark-colored granny square blanket. If we ever get the chance to stitch over coffee again, that's probably what I'll be working on. :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14482723497287290855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140327191657829121.post-42697203667129123262009-09-10T22:43:40.694-04:002009-09-10T22:43:40.694-04:00log cabin blanket?

Hold onto the scraps- as soon as you rid yourself of them a project will come up that needs exactly what you just purged. <br /><br />Someone would definitely pay for the fingering weight cotton yarn. There are plenty of groups on Ravlery that specialize in destashing yarn. It's really pretty stuff- I'm sure you wont have a problems finding a home for it!katehttp://katecreates.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140327191657829121.post-82721370466630891052009-09-10T05:44:45.947-04:002009-09-10T05:44:45.947-04:00ooo!

Like have cotton scraps... acrylic/wool scraps... or do you divide by weight? hmmm. Interesting idea!<br /><br />And yes, the "frog pond" is where I store the sweaters I've bought to be frogged (unraveled). :)Sarah {The Student Knitter}https://www.blogger.com/profile/16675019085913769597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140327191657829121.post-64868095893321831022009-09-10T02:45:02.283-04:002009-09-10T02:45:02.283-04:00I have seen patterns on Ravelry before for using s...I have seen patterns on Ravelry before for using scrap yarns. I have seen dishcloths and blankets. I just went to the "pattern" section and typed in scraps and a lot of things came up. One pattern for an afghan even says that it will have directions in splicing the yarn together in order to roll it into one big ball for ease of use. There is also a rug, scarf, wrap, etc. I was also looking in a knitting magazine today, and there was a huge wrap/sweater that a designer had made with scraps. He picked the colors at random, unless it started to look to concentrated and then he/she would adjust the colors picked. It was striped, and so cool looking!<br />What is a frog pool? Is it a collection of things that you have to unravel? Did you buy them, or are they just old clothes that you have?Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02279899959472106874noreply@blogger.com
