What to do with all these wool oddments??!?

My mission for this year was to learn to crochet properly, having made several attempts in the past and not having got it quite right. I am very lucky as my Mum is fabulous at it and so I have a constant source of handy hints and access to some great patterns and how to guides!

So far I have made a small baby blanket

Then I got a little more adventurous and had a go at making up my own creations, I decided on Owls,

All this crochet coupled with a dabbling last year with knitting I am accumulating rather a lot of oddments and have been coming up with small projects that will make use of them.

I have made some pompom key rings and bookmarks

and now I am working on Flower versions

Any more ideas? I will have to chat to the very talented, fellow Trash Revamp member Janine Booth http://folksy.com/shops/trashtasticknits
