My mom gifted me a fun skein of handdyed cotton for Christmas. It would be perfect for washcloths, but I don't really end up using them. I started crocheting a stretchy market bag, but I frogged it when I admitted to myself that I probably wouldn't use that, either. What do I use? Pouches! I made a sturdy bottom by crocheting some grey cotton from my leftovers, then picked up stitches and knit the top half in the pretty handdyed yarn, and sewed in a zipper. I already have a new sock design WIP living in it ☺️ The way the colours pooled into stripes is really interesting! What should I make with the leftovers?
