I used up some yarn on the shrug that has been in my stash for a number of years. It was a pound ball so that cleared out a bit of space.

Also used up some more upholstery fabric making cushions for the rocker outside.

I used up most of two pieces of fabric. One of which has been in my stash for a couple of years. The other is one I bought at the fabric sale at the United church.

Finished off one partial ball of yarn as well on the second poncho. Hopefully at least one more will be totally used up on this project.

Used up another ball of yarn on the poncho and just a tad of another one. Started a new one and hopefully this will use up a few more balls of a yarn that I was given.

So while the second half of the last poncho only used up a tad of the leftover yarn.... I started the second poncho and have used up a full skein of yarn and a bit on the first part. Hoping to use up the rest of the bit and a little more on the second half.

On the second half of the second poncho, I used up the remainder of the yarn from the first and most of the next ball. So I guess one can say this used up about 2 1/2 balls of yarn.... Not as much as I had hoped. I still have 3 full skeins left so will need to perhaps make another one down the road a bit.

I used up 1 1/2 rather large balls of baby yarn making the blanket and have now pulled out various colours of leftover worsted to work on the multi-coloured blanket to use them up. Oh my, I did not realize how much I had saved. Pretty sure I will have enough for more than one blanket. I just plan on the one right now, and will see what happens.
