The appliques in the pictures were made from scrap yarns.
Appliques are a great way to use up leftover bits of yarn and can be used in a lot of different ways. They be sewn onto clothes as patches, added as a final embellishment to a blanket, or as coasters. In the case of these cuties, I added them to my kid’s craft box, to be used for later rainy-day craft projects.

This elephant head applique is the latest that has found its way into the craft box.

You can make these larger or smaller by changing your hook size.
