Bust that Yarn Stash, and don't worry about the fit

Knitting need not be sweaters, socks or scarves. How about knitting something for the home or a toy for your child? This book has an amazing assortment of non-garment designs like pillows, lampshades and toys.It also has accessories (bags, hats, socks, mittens) for kids. GREAT for gifts. Who doesn't need a cute bag or another pair of mittens?Knitting for the home and knitting accessories is a lot of fun and brings out the creativity. You can use up mixes of yarns you bought for the exciting colors or textures, but that you had no idea how to use. If you combine these patterns with embellishments, you can reuse these patterns and make new creations with added fringe, cord,applique or embroidery (check out Knitted Embellishements by Nicki Epstein--you can do celtic knotwork with i-cord) If you like this kind of knitting, you might also Shangold's Design Source book of Home Decor, Nicki Epstein's Knitting for your Home, or Erika Knight's Comforts of Home.
