Using Up Yarn – Or A Christmas ExStringvaganza

December 18, 2012 by jd wolfe Leave a Comment

Here are a few quick ideas for using up you scraps of yarn to make your packages look very special – and unique. Most need no instruction. Turn the plainest of paper into the most stylish packages under the tree. Just grab your scraps of yarn and recreate the looks here. It wouldn’t hurt to sprinkle a few small crocheted snowflakes or fridgies here and there – glue them on or tie them on.
