How to Make the Most Out of One Skein of Yarn
Tips and Tricks
-
Pick your project: work on projects where sizing isn't critical (i.e., a cowl, a scarf, or a shawl). This way you don't become confined or stuck to having to make anything a specific size. Plus, you can use different sized needles and yarn to make your project bigger or smaller while still only using one skein.
-
Use pre-dyed yarn: if you pick a yarn that is already dyed different colors, you won't have to buy multiple skeins. You also won't have to weave in your ends! Double win!
-
Double check: always be sure to double check your gauge. Know your needle size and make sure you pick a needle size best suited for the yarn.
-
Tailor it: be sure the project you make works well with the skein of yarn.
