Ever wonder what to do with handspun yarn?
If you have a limited number of yards to work with, then here are some great pattern ideas: 

  • Make a hat - Wooly Wormhead has lots of great free hat patterns.  One that's made especially for handspun is the Handspun Beanie.
  • Make a neckwarmer - here's a great one from Ozark Handspun.
  • Make a purse - here's a pattern that could easily be made with handspun yarn.
  • Make a scarf - this is a simple drop-stitch scarf that lets a handspun single's characteristics really "pop".
  • Use handspun to embellish a project that is knit/crocheted with commercial yarn.

There are a 1000 other ways to use handspun.  Check out books, magazines or Ravelry for more free patterns and ideas!
