What can I do with leftover yarn?
I usually make hats with yarn but I have some skeins were I still have a lot left, just not enough to make a hat. Any craft ideas I can do that can sell?
Answers:
Utilize your "bits" by learning a new technique -- such as freeform crochet and/or freeform knitting. There are many websites, books, and videos available on this fantastic technique!
Create a "magic ball" by tying all the yarn together and create a unique "one of a kind" garment.
Use the bits to create buttons, or use as a trim on hats, bags & other projects. Create something for a Barbie or baby doll. Stuff some pretty bits into a clear glass ornament as a unique tree ornament. Chop them up into 2" lengths & sprinkle around your yarn; the birds will utilize it as nesting materials.
I hope this helps,

Yarn is good for hair on dolls...
You might also think about donating it to a local preschool. They are always in need of craft supplies
What I do with it is either make a crazy sweater or make granny squares, combine them and come up with an original afghan
Cut it up
let the birds fix their nests ??
OH . Sell???

Since this question wound up in the Vegetarian section, I guess the best answer would be to serve it with organic pesto.
Crochet them into squares and sew all the squares toe make shawls, or add a backing to make a bed cover.
