Video idea: you get all your cotton partial skeins together and you do a two part video series of “how many bucket hats/bandanas can I make using my yarn scraps” and just use up as many partials that can be incorporated into larger projects.”
All your smaller scraps that’s too much to cut up but not enough to make a big impact on a project… make a “rainbow stripe” bucket hat. You can get a bunch of colors that compliment each other, all pastels for example, and stripe them into a rainbow hat. A lot of work weaving in the ends, but they’d be used up and in a pretty cute hat.
I'm down for a 'how many things can I make with ONLY scrap yarn' challenge! Also, check your local library and senior center for donating yarns. They'll usually take them!
For the tops that were returned, I think you could advertise them as returns and sell them at a discounted rate if you don’t want to frog them. I’m sure someone would be interested in them if given the opportunity, and you still get some money for the work you put in. Just a thought
This is what I was thinking. Selling at a reduced price and just letting the customer know it was a return/exchange and let them decide if that’s something they are comfortable with. I mean it’s basically the same concept purchasing a thrifted item. 🤷🏻♀️
I agree! When I come across yarn at the thrift store I’m always at least checking it out. At least at my local one they usually group the yarn together and sell it as like a grab bag. There may also be a second hand craft place to bring it to as well, but at least at the thrift store you could donate leftover yarn, as well as any already made items.
I think a bucket hat made with all the scraps would be fun. Just use one scrap until it ends and then add on another one. It will be random, fun and satisfying because you're eliminating all the scraps!
You should make a scrap yarn cardigan! You just use all the random colors and tie the knots on the outside, leaving the tails hanging out; I know it sounds funky but they look really cool!
Take the smaller bits with some black cotton, put them together in a scrap rug or doggy mat to put on the couch for doggy to lie on!! It will even be machine washable!
If there are small bits of skeins that you genuinely think you won’t use, you could always do a giveaway/raffle of a few little goodie bags with a few mixed bits in each bag and send them off to your followers and see what they can make with it and post it and tag you. People could even vote on who best used the sCRAP (as I call it lol) you sent them. Or sending it away alone could at least be a way to engage followers while also clearing up space in your room. Honestly you can obvi do what you want but it was just an idea I wanted to share!
Goodwill for stuff you are not going to use. Pull out a garbage bag and dump guilt-free. Love the two color bucket hat idea for the cotton yarn. Kelsie, you are inspiring myself and others to clear out the clutter.
You can also try your local nursing homes or assisted-living facilities of their crafting areas could well use your scrap yarn little balls. Whatever have you I know for a fact that they do share with the women residence that can crochet and they just maybe they just do a simple granny square, it’s something they can do and it keeps their interest and it makes their days go faster. Love this video love seeing the beginning of your TH-cam life. It was great.
I agree: a video of using scraps would be interesting. Also, make granny squares. You said that you sell bags easily, and granny squares and bags go together. You have enough yarn there for at least five bags. 😊❤
I see all kinds of potential with your first bin, all kinds of bandannas and stripes. That can be a goal finish one whole bucket. With the squares, I’d make a bag or bags. Hope you’re having a good evening.❤
I gift a lot of scrap yarns to the local knitting group that teaches at the library once a week. I've also sent old needles, hooks, misc accessories. People are super excited to learn and then get to take some yarn and a hook home to keep practicing.
Great video! I love the idea of doing a video to use up all your findings! Maybe you could make a scrappy cotton granny square bag or other granny square project. Then it won’t matter if sue lots match up.
I enjoyed looking at the projects from your earlier days. It gives me motivation to keep going on a project that I’ve made a mistake. And it’s ok to go back and try again.
Scrap bags or tops would be really cute. You could sell the returns on your site for cheaper with a disclaimer that they were returns. I’ve bought clothes that way and was very happy with my purchase.
That was fun! Really enjoyed seeing your old designs and to compare how much you have improved over time! Totally agree with all the comments about doing a vlog/series of using up your scraps!
I'm just home from work, & am so tired, but it's very uplifting to see a new (1 minute old) video from you! Even better if it motivates me to deal with my yarn haystack later on! 🥰 Best wishes from Czechia xxx
Hi Kelsie, yeah a bin video, sweet. You can make multi color market bags with the scraps. Great assortment. Can’t wait to see what you make. 🥰 You could bundle it all up into a big mailer bag and put on your website for sale, Box of stuff from Bin video… $30 bucks.. heck I’m such a dork, I’d buy it. I love finishing projects and balling u scrap yarn. 🤓
I started watching while making lunch and the 3 year old I'm baby sitting has now gotten very invested in your videos because " Her got same colors like you Miss Wee ! " LOL we have been using my yarn and projects to work on counting and colors this summer.😂😂❤❤
Hello dear viewer from India I am watching your video like your yarn collection dear....we are not getting the yarn like your side...stay healthy and passionate
I visited my Grandma today and she recently learned that I got back into crochet and therefore she gave me her whole stash of wool she still had there are so many random tiny yarn balls and also unused skeins and I honestly love it it feels like each piece of wool I pull out of the bag tells a story
Love this video, we all have stuff hidden in drawers or bins or bags. Make scrap tops ir bucket hats out if the cotton, and use the granny squares for a purse or two and a cross body bag. ❤
Scrap projects are my favourite! When I was seeing the brown & yellow cotton, I kept visualizing a bucket hat with a sunflower on top! Thanks for sharing your hidden stash with us……it’s always fun seeing another person’s yarn stash!
Just saw this video and the bin that has all the tops is awesome! If you tweaked those patterns at all (like change to cotton, etc) and wrote them out I'll bet you would sell them. I know I'd be interested in some of them because I thought they were really cute!
i would make scrap yarn bucket hats! either alternating colors each row for a more neat look, or just alternating whenever you run out of your color for an extra scrappy bucket hat!
I love the black halter and pink top that laces up the front. I would 100% buy the patterns for them. I'm crocheting 2 colour market bags also, they look pretty. Thank you for another brilliant vlog
It is so satisfying to see what is in your boxes and the way you show and explain them is just perfect! Thanks and again greetings from Bavaria, Germany ❤
Looooooved seeing where you started from. And seeing your old projects. Gives me so much motivation 🫶 also. I’m sure you could sell those returns. Even even you break even with yarn costs!
I loved all of this! I’m a sucker for decluttering/organizing videos and I wish I could come help you finish up the last of it 🥰 it was also sooo reassuring to see all the progress projects!
I picked up crochet again this week for the first time in like two years (thank you for the inspiration!). I've made two of these same market bags and I'm like halfway through a third already. I need to stop. But my next project is a patchwork granny square cardigan! I'm going to mix a bunch of different squares styles with a palette of buttercup yellow, a soft sage green, bright white, and a like... milk chocolate sort of brown? Very cottagecore. I'm so excited. >w
Tie the scraps together and then wind them into cakes and make scrappy projects 😊 they always end up looking cool and some ppl love scrappy items more than planned color changes! Could be a new market for you ❤
Maybe for all those itty bitty bits that you don't know what to do with you make a magic ball? You can make it bigger and bigger until you have enough for a semi large project like those crop tops you made recently! Also loving all the suggestions for a scrap yarn series. Totally down! I make baskets with mine :D
Would love to see some of your early creations reworked into a new pattern❤. Make thise old ideas into something new! A lot of them have so much potential to be so cute!!
I have never been able to make crispy dill pickles and have given up. This method has me thinking I should give it a try. Can't wait to see how yours turned out after 3 weeks.
Video idea: you get all your cotton partial skeins together and you do a two part video series of “how many bucket hats/bandanas can I make using my yarn scraps” and just use up as many partials that can be incorporated into larger projects.”
All your smaller scraps that’s too much to cut up but not enough to make a big impact on a project… make a “rainbow stripe” bucket hat. You can get a bunch of colors that compliment each other, all pastels for example, and stripe them into a rainbow hat. A lot of work weaving in the ends, but they’d be used up and in a pretty cute hat.
I was thinking a scrappy bucket hat for some of the smaller partials too
How many scrappy octopus! 🐙
Wind them up into a cake n make the start of a scrap afghan
i was also thinking scrappy bucket hats!
You should definitely do a "using up my scraps" series!
seconding this!
Yes please! This would be so nice 😍
EXACTLY what I was going to say !! :-)
This! Its so satisfying to watch, while I ignore my own scraps pile 😂
Yesss❤
I'm down for a 'how many things can I make with ONLY scrap yarn' challenge! Also, check your local library and senior center for donating yarns. They'll usually take them!
I would be HERE FOR a "remaking my old designs" series where you reimagine the old tops and improve on them.
early works can be a great source of inspiration :)
a 41 minute video? we have been blessed 🥰
Exactly my tought 🤣 i got so excited hahaha
Let's make a petition so the vlogs are at least 40 minutes long. If she doesn't comply, she'll have to give up the 5.5mm hooks 🤭
I came to say the same thing 😅❤
@@_Maressa_I like that! Edit: but maybe not all of them tho bc sometimes it can be hard to do that but more of them I understand 😊
Ikr? As a crafter, the longer the video the better!
Honestly, I'm so impressed at how well you recognize what color name the yarn is just by looking.
lol! Thank you
The pink granny squares would be a great tote and the leftovers would be sooo cute as those crossbody bags!!
For the tops that were returned, I think you could advertise them as returns and sell them at a discounted rate if you don’t want to frog them. I’m sure someone would be interested in them if given the opportunity, and you still get some money for the work you put in. Just a thought

An idea for you! You can donate the yarn you don't want too. I have found a lot of great yarn at thrift stores and it will be found and loved.
You could donate it when you're out posting your orders so you don't have to go out only for that.
I agree! When I come across yarn at the thrift store I’m always at least checking it out. At least at my local one they usually group the yarn together and sell it as like a grab bag. There may also be a second hand craft place to bring it to as well, but at least at the thrift store you could donate leftover yarn, as well as any already made items.
She could also donate the tops!
That brown, with cornflower would make a BEAUTIFUL bucket hat
YES ONE OF MY FAV COLOR COMBINATION!!
I think a bucket hat made with all the scraps would be fun. Just use one scrap until it ends and then add on another one. It will be random, fun and satisfying because you're eliminating all the scraps!
And can call it an eco bucket hat
That's what I was trying to say... b/c those turn out very interesting 🤔
A scrap yarn market bag would probably be cute 🤷🏻♀️ 😊
🎵This is beginning to look a lot like a new 'how many granny stitch bucket hats in a day video'🎵 and I love it!
“you see the vision” is my favorite craft phrase like it just hits right
You should make a scrap yarn cardigan! You just use all the random colors and tie the knots on the outside, leaving the tails hanging out; I know it sounds funky but they look really cool!

i know my Oma's senior living home has yarn for them to play with! even if they don't knit or crochet anymore, they still find joy in yarn
A scrap market bag with all of those scrap colors a little bit of this and some of that would be amazing 😊
I'm crying laughing at the (first) knit beanie. Thanks for that. 😂
You’ve come a LONG way, baby! All the not so good stuff lead to where you are now. So not a waste.
Best thing about my birthday falling on a Wednesday is a get a new passioknit vlog😂😂
Happy birthday girl!! Today is actually my half birthday lol 🎉
happy bday!!
Happy birthday!!
And it’s over 40 minutes long!! Happy birthday!
Happy birthday 🎉
Goodwill for stuff you are not going to use. Pull out a garbage bag and dump guilt-free. Love the two color bucket hat idea for the cotton yarn. Kelsie, you are inspiring myself and others to clear out the clutter.
You should bring the returns to a thrift store.❤ love your videos
Me 👉🏻 🎉 💃🏼 🎉 👈🏻 CELEBRATING that I just WATCHED 🤓 4️⃣1️⃣ minutes [and] 0️⃣3️⃣ SECONDS of my favorite #crochet #vlogger #passionknit Kelsie
You could make a magic yarn ball out of all the little peaces and crochet Something with it
You can also try your local nursing homes or assisted-living facilities of their crafting areas could well use your scrap yarn little balls. Whatever have you I know for a fact that they do share with the women residence that can crochet and they just maybe they just do a simple granny square, it’s something they can do and it keeps their interest and it makes their days go faster. Love this video love seeing the beginning of your TH-cam life. It was great.
brown and cornflower blue go together so well in a bandana or a bucket hat!
Absolutely would love a “redoing your own designs” video. Especially the off the shoulder ruffle top that would be adorable when done well!!
I agree: a video of using scraps would be interesting. Also, make granny squares. You said that you sell bags easily, and granny squares and bags go together. You have enough yarn there for at least five bags. 😊❤
You've got bucket hats on the brain. When will I hear you say "This could make a bandana, right?" XDD
I see all kinds of potential with your first bin, all kinds of bandannas and stripes. That can be a goal finish one whole bucket. With the squares, I’d make a bag or bags. Hope you’re having a good evening.❤
I gift a lot of scrap yarns to the local knitting group that teaches at the library once a week. I've also sent old needles, hooks, misc accessories. People are super excited to learn and then get to take some yarn and a hook home to keep practicing.
Great video! I love the idea of doing a video to use up all your findings! Maybe you could make a scrappy cotton granny square bag or other granny square project. Then it won’t matter if sue lots match up.
I'd love to see a lot of bucket heads. I'm sure the smal color difference is not bothering ❤
I believe that you can donate yarn to senior centers. You might check in your area for that.
I enjoyed looking at the projects from your earlier days. It gives me motivation to keep going on a project that I’ve made a mistake.
And it’s ok to go back and try again.
I use every cotton scrap i have and make magic ball dishcloths for myself.
Scrap bags or tops would be really cute.
You could sell the returns on your site for cheaper with a disclaimer that they were returns. I’ve bought clothes that way and was very happy with my purchase.
If you put a hair tie in the middle of the donut and then sew it up, you’ve got a donut scrunchie!
That was fun! Really enjoyed seeing your old designs and to compare how much you have improved over time! Totally agree with all the comments about doing a vlog/series of using up your scraps!
I'm just home from work, & am so tired, but it's very uplifting to see a new (1 minute old) video from you! Even better if it motivates me to deal with my yarn haystack later on! 🥰 Best wishes from Czechia xxx
Hi, you could use the cotton scraps for washcloths, face scrubbers, and dishcloths. Multiple-colors would be fun!
We need a scrappy top/bandana/bucket hat video! For the longer remnants that are "too much" yet "not enough"!
You could do a scrap bucket hat or bandana. Maybe think about reworking your wrap a round top, after all you have way more experience now.
Hi Kelsie, yeah a bin video, sweet. You can make multi color market bags with the scraps. Great assortment. Can’t wait to see what you make. 🥰 You could bundle it all up into a big mailer bag and put on your website for sale, Box of stuff from Bin video… $30 bucks.. heck I’m such a dork, I’d buy it.

GUYS THE QUENN POSTED! I just saw the comment on that video and I know they are happy to see this video.
Love the bucket hat idea for the leftover yarns.
i had a very bad day until kelsie posted another passioKnit vlog💕
I started watching while making lunch and the 3 year old I'm baby sitting has now gotten very invested in your videos because " Her got same colors like you Miss Wee ! " LOL we have been using my yarn and projects to work on counting and colors this summer.😂😂❤❤
With all those that have different dye lots and small amounts, you can make a scrappy market bag
I love organising vids and I love Kelsie Vids. BEST DAY EVER!!!
Ohh a long video ❤❤❤. Your vlogs are so interesting for me and fun because I also like to crochet and I'm currently crocheting a jellyfish 😅❤❤
Ngl this is going to be the best part of my day today. Yay to whoever suggested this.
"When you catch the smallest fish in the group" took. Me. Out. 😂😂😂
you can use the granny square to make a pillow cover or something for your home.
Hello dear viewer from India I am watching your video like your yarn collection dear....we are not getting the yarn like your side...stay healthy and passionate
You can definitely use some of those scraps for Bandana borders and straps.
scrappy bucket hats! with lots of color changes and variation
I visited my Grandma today and she recently learned that I got back into crochet and therefore she gave me her whole stash of wool she still had there are so many random tiny yarn balls and also unused skeins and I honestly love it it feels like each piece of wool I pull out of the bag tells a story
For all your little cotton bits you could mystery bandanas.
As someone who is a big fan of you and your work, it's really cool and inspiring to see your old tops 💜
Yeeeeey! It's 6pm in Germany and on your usual upload days I'm waiting all day for your newest video ❤️
You are the best creater ever!!!!!
Ps I love your how many in a day vídeo and all the others!!!!
Love this video, we all have stuff hidden in drawers or bins or bags. Make scrap tops ir bucket hats out if the cotton, and use the granny squares for a purse or two and a cross body bag. ❤
My wife loves ur videos soo much that she whants 3 new videos a day!!!
Scrap projects are my favourite! When I was seeing the brown & yellow cotton, I kept visualizing a bucket hat with a sunflower on top! Thanks for sharing your hidden stash with us……it’s always fun seeing another person’s yarn stash!

i would make scrap yarn bucket hats! either alternating colors each row for a more neat look, or just alternating whenever you run out of your color for an extra scrappy bucket hat!
Makes me smile to see your first attempts. You have come along ways!!!
Ohh ohh! That is an open top beanie! For when it’s not too cold. 😂
Kelsie how about tieing all the scraps together and make a hat/bandana/ maket bag ...
You can make a scrappy market bag and the bigger ones bandanas
I def would have just posted a FB marketplace post with a random lot of yarn and get rid of some of those lol
That’s a good idea!
I love the black halter and pink top that laces up the front. I would 100% buy the patterns for them. I'm crocheting 2 colour market bags also, they look pretty. Thank you for another brilliant vlog
I think you could donate the old tops rather than frog or throw away! I can definitely see someone being happy to find those at the thrift!
The amount of hope you have given me! Even you went through the "what was this supposed to be?" stage.
It is so satisfying to see what is in your boxes and the way you show and explain them is just perfect! Thanks and again greetings from Bavaria, Germany ❤
Looooooved seeing where you started from. And seeing your old projects. Gives me so much motivation 🫶 also. I’m sure you could sell those returns. Even even you break even with yarn costs!
So fun, you reminiscing with us!! Loved it! ❤
Making a hexicardigan out of all scraps would look so cool!
I loved all of this! I’m a sucker for decluttering/organizing videos and I wish I could come help you finish up the last of it 🥰 it was also sooo reassuring to see all the progress projects!
I picked up crochet again this week for the first time in like two years (thank you for the inspiration!). I've made two of these same market bags and I'm like halfway through a third already. I need to stop.

Good to see you today. I love the box with projects from your beginning. That is A box to keep. Keep Smiling.
Oddly enough, I’m enjoying watching you go through your boxes of random yarn stuff while I am avoiding doing the same with mine!
I'd love to see another of your scrappy yarn projects with the scraps from these crates.
Today has been such a shit day then I realized it's Wednesday and the most passionate of Kelsies has a new video out. Yaaaaaaaaay
❤️❤️
Tie the scraps together and then wind them into cakes and make scrappy projects 😊 they always end up looking cool and some ppl love scrappy items more than planned color changes! Could be a new market for you ❤
Maybe for all those itty bitty bits that you don't know what to do with you make a magic ball? You can make it bigger and bigger until you have enough for a semi large project like those crop tops you made recently!
Also loving all the suggestions for a scrap yarn series. Totally down! I make baskets with mine :D
Ahh, yes, mystery bins guts have been revealed! Neat to see some og passioknit items! You're so talented Kelsie!!❤
With those scraps you can totally make a dupe of the “Supreme” Hand Tied crochet beanie!!
Would love to see some of your early creations reworked into a new pattern❤. Make thise old ideas into something new! A lot of them have so much potential to be so cute!!
You could totally donate the tops that were send back to you!
You should do a video using all the smallest bits of yarn for projects! Love you videos!
Love your videos... this one is special. It's longer and really interesting 😅❤❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
I’ve been using my scraps for bucket hats. They turn out pretty fun with the variety of colors.
U think u should make all the things scrappy .top.hats.etc xx that would be a fun blog
We all have those bins and old projects we ignore. Thanks for sharing your adventures in creation. 😊🧶😊
I have never been able to make crispy dill pickles and have given up. This method has me thinking I should give it a try. Can't wait to see how yours turned out after 3 weeks.
41 minutes?? You‘re blessing us ❤
