Stash Busters: Using Up Scrap Yarn with Becca Schillinger

Workshop Description

Yarn is the ultimate sustainable resource!

Learn to combine scrap yarns into sweet stripes, flawless fades, and groovy gradients! In this unique workshop we’ll choose yarns by weight, texture, and color, and make a rad scrappy scrunchie, or swatch for your next stash-busting project.
