Nubs are the very ends of the ball of yarn. There is not enough yarn to make anything big so I am able to get anywhere from half a row to 4 rows on this horse.
The scrap horses go into the silent auction and sell for around $30 per horse.

A scrap horse
This is a scrap horse and all the grades know about them. At the end of every class, as we clean up, we collect all the scraps & put them in a basket. By winter break we have enough scraps to stuff one of these horses that I knit with nubs.

Wonderful idea! What a creative way to use up the yarn. Good luck with the auction this year!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what to do with those *ends*.. Is there a pattern? Really cute idea.
ReplyDeleteStumbled on your blog, happily. I used to take classes at Sunbridge many years ago with Renate Hiller among many others. I don't remember the name of the elementary school, but wondered if that is where you are.
