I have got a big stash of yarn with some nearly whole 100g balls, some wavey chunky wool and some normal chunky wool and some dk.

I crochet better than I knitt but can do either so what pattern ideas have you done that I can get using my yarn up by doing.

Need some inspiration and thought it might give inspiration to others too.

Thanks :)

how about havinga search for some patterns on folksy? (http://www.folksy.com)

there are lots of sellers there who not only sell the finished articles but also the patterns too :)

There is Ravelry and lots of patterns around that are free. I recently learnt how to do hdc and htc from the book 'Rowan Crochet workshop' which gave me guidance to attempt some mittens, maybe you could do a combo of a hat, mittens and scarf for a loved one, if not I made a really quick hot water bottle cover that I am sure can be adapted to be done in crochet :)


Good luck :)

warm snuggle blankets! You can work 2 or 3 balls at the same time to make a lovely chunky blanket four your knees.
