From visible mending to stashbuster projects, friendship bracelets to bunny nuggest, this week's episode is full of ideas for how to use up the little bits of yarn that survive a project. (Assuming you didn't lose yarn chicken, that is!)

Aunt Bethany & her knitting

* Punch needle

* Colorwork!

* Embroidery

* Pom Poms

* Stripes! No one can stop you. Stripes.

* Shoelaces and icords and drawstrings - you'll need a [Lucet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucet)

*Friendship bracelets

* Macrame & wall hangings

* Knit tiny things (think [MochiMochiLand](https://mochimochiland.com) for inspiration)

* Weaving

* Make a blanket or rug!

* Felting (if you have lots of non-super wash bits!)

* Decor! Hand roll them into tiny balls and pop them in a glass bottle or jar

* Practice new stitches and techniques with leftover bits

* STASHBUSTER PROJECTS!
