Want to create a dynamic, colorful, ever changing scrap sock yarn blanket that keeps you going?
Using just your scraps of sock yarn, learn how to create magic multicolor yarn cakes in different color tones. The magic yarn used in this seashell yarn blanket, will keep the knitting exciting with every shell turning out different.
Along with pattern for the project, there is emphasis on an easy way to categorize your yarns based on color tones and making colorful yarn cakes which can be used for similar projects. The best part… no weaving in ends when you are done.
Material: Lots of scraps of sock yarn (5 arm lengths or more in each color). More colors, the better
Lots of simple show rows make the shells. Short rows in this pattern involve just turning work and working the stitches, leaving a hole. These holes make a nice border around the shells making them pop.
