Great ideas! My daughter teaches 4th grade. Each year I crochet hats, ear warmers, or headbands for her students. This year, it was ear warmers for the boys and cute headbands for the girls. She plans to give them out just before Christmas break. What started me doing this a few years ago was because of one girl in her class. My daughter has a prize box in her class. Students meeting certain goals get to choose a prize. One year, I had crocheted a hat with a poinsettia on it and gave it to her for the prize box. A little girl chose it and wore it every day, even in the summer! The next school year, my daughter said, "Mom, you remember the little girl who wore that hat every day? I saw her coming down the hall today and she had that hat on!" I just couldn't get it out of my mind how much that hat meant to her. So each year, I make something for all her students. She team teaches 2 groups so it averages over 40 students. I am so blessed to be able to do this for them. I recently pulled out several skeins of yarn and made items I donated to my mother-in-law's church for an upcoming fair they are having. I feel like God blessed me with the ability to crochet to give to others. It brings me peace and joy.....fruits of the spirit.

Hi Julie! I was gifted so much yarn years ago...and recently even more! With a lot (not all!) of the first batch, I made hats and scarves for the HER Shelter in our city. It's a battered women and children shelter. I filled up a new bin and donated it to them. Now I have even more yarn, and I would like to do some granny squares and make lap quilts (crochet blankets!) to donate. Yes, I also quilt (donated fabric also!) and I have about 30 of those to donate. I would like to add some crochet ones to that stack!☺I enjoyed listening to you give ideas about what to do with the yarn leftovers, but now I do need to go find a granny square pattern that I can sit and do when I watch TV in the evening!☺Thanks for your enthusiasm! I'm sure others were inspired to go find leftover yarn!🤗☺

The third, would you please display your mitered blankets, and your designer's technique for making them. You are really a fantastic designer! Can't wait for your 'answer' to this plea for help.

If I have a partial skien left and I'm making something the same colour, I use the partial first. Of course only when lot #'s aren't a problem. I also reach for partial skiens for amigrumi first. So I so have some scrap I'm saving but still not enough for a blanket.

I enjoy your videos so much, Julie! I belong to a “buy nothing” group in my community and when I asked for blue yarn to make hats for hat not hate, people were so generous! So if folks want yarn, there are a lot of people who will give you yarn to scrap create morning noon and night! I’ve also sent off items to a group in North Dakota. You have inspired me to start a new WIP a scrap/BUB that’s not really a BUB 😂

As soon as I see a new blanket or Afghan pattern that I haven’t tried before, I totally make a mini version out of my spare scrap yarn first! I challenged myself once to make the most ugliest BUB ever, even that atrocious thing became my youngest sons lovey❤️
