I turn a lot of my leftovers into sweaters, hats, scarves, and mittens
for kids. It uses up lots of very nice but smallish amounts, lets me
play with all sorts of color patterns and combinations, answers the
minor design questions, and helps keep kids warm. I have never known
a teacher, school administrator, or member of the clergy who doesn't
know who needs what. Occasionally I get buried in leftovers from
friends, of course, and if it's just way too much I pack up a lot and
get it to a local senior citizens center, where the elderly also make
things for kids, and lots of smallish afghans and lap robes. One of
the administrators told me that there are quite a few seniors who love
to work with yarn but often can't afford to buy it, so they are very
pleased with the treasure troves.

I am very glad to hear that you share your materials or fruit of you
labour with others.
=46rom what i read on our kind of groups that is what many crafters do.
And i am also very glad that i can first use my own leftovers from
other projects for me and for my collegues. As long as it doesn`t get
thrown away. The art many of us create [ alot from left overs] makes
many people either glad from looking at it ,.or brings over Human
ideas.
