Crafts with wool or cotton scraps

Do you have any leftover yarn or cotton from your last project? In today's post, we'll give you some ideas of crafts you can make with those scraps.

There are many quick and easy crafts you can make with leftover yarn or cotton. The most common use for leftover yarn is to make pom-poms, which can be used to decorate many items, from a sweater to a headband or baby accessories. In the step-by-step guide for our booties, we show you in detail how to make a pom-pom. You can also choose to glue it onto a gift package, turn it into decorative flowers, or attach a ribbon to use it as a bookmark.

And if you have leftover cotton in different colors, you can make a version of our crossbody bag or crochet squares and join them to form a beautiful blanket or a small jewelry box for your accessories.

With both materials, even fabric yarn, you can make bracelets, details to customize your clothes or bags (pockets, stars, faux hems...), or covers to protect your books if you take them to the beach or pool. It's all about letting your imagination run wild!
