Jagged Scrap Yarn Afghan

Design by Candy Lifshes from Meladora’s Creations.

This Jagged Scrap yarn afghan is made using a stitch I discovered while playing around with yarn. I don’t know why all my discovered stitches mostly use two stitches to create and this one is no different. Lol.

But other than the butterfly stitch this one is surely the most easiest one to recreate! Let me take you step by step on how to make this stitch so you can use it in making your own scrap yarn afghan to use up some of your left over wool.

I’ve never been a fan of the mixed color of scrap yarn afghans so I decided to do mine in a more organized fashion starting with my Maroons, Reds, Oranges, Browns, Yellows, Golds, Greens, Blues, Purples, Pinks and back to the beginning of the color list.

Feel free to go with what feels right to you.

Materials

• Yarn: All the scrap yarn colors were worsted weight yarn
  • 4 ply US, 10 ply AU
  • Also the Off white color I used in between as well. I was able to get 10 rows of Off white before I had to change to a new skein.
  • I used 2 and a 1/2 skeins of it, but I didn’t make a border. If you wish to, then I would grab a third. I didn’t want to use much of this color because it’s a scrap yarn afghan and don’t want you to have to go get more yarn.
• Hook: 5 mm hook or size H hook for the US
