Having started a pair of socks from odd mini balls of sock wool got me to thinking about all the other mini balls of left over yarn I have...100's!
creative crochet and knits all very original never to be repeated or seen any where as we all have different left overs to make magic balls with.
Tie all the ends together in one big ball of useable yarn and make yourself a fabulous and original blanket....or make something at least.
Want to use up all those little left over balls of yarn?
With your magic ball and sock wool to give the shading, work as one yarn.
NOTE: it can be asier to do the last st into the sp rather than the st.
Increase is only one side so the rows run 2,3,3,4,4 5,5...and so on.
MARK THE INCREASE SIDE so that you don't forget.
After a few rows it will be obvious which is the straight side and which is the angled, increase side.
Strictly speaking it should run 2,2, 3,3,4,4... but i didn't like the first 2 sets of 2 so increased so it runs 2,3,3,4,4....and so on.
ROWS 7 - 39: repeat rows 5 and 6 with the increase on odd number rows.
Using sc in the side of each dc, on the two sides and and ch3 loops.
I tried adding 15 st, triangles to start with but didn't like the effect so decided on a closed 'v' stick border of several rows..
Each round is in a different col. I used shades of blue and green for my border, but as its a left over yarn blanket then use what you have and like.
ROUND 1: 2dc, in each ch3, loop, 2dc, ch3, 2dc, in corner ch3 loops.
ROUND 2-6: 2dc in each sp between pairs of dc, creating a closed 'v' st, with 2dc , ch3, 2dc, in each ch3, corner sp.
all the triangles joined together with sc, ch3, sc.
