There are lots of projects out there for using yarn scraps, but not as many for using your swatches in useful ways.
I love this idea from Interweave to use swatches to make bowls. All you need is some fabric stiffener (they use Mod Podge) and a form to hold the shape while it dries.
You could also sew several swatches together to make a bigger basket or bowl if you’d like. There’s no better way to hold your odd balls than in a bowl made out of swatches!
How do you use your swatches? I’d love to hear your ideas.
