Crocheted Confetti
Here is a fun (and environmentally friendly) way to celebrate the new year and use up your yarn scraps – Crocheted Confetti! It can be used over and over again and it is easy to clean up. Use it to throw in the air or as a party decoration. It would look pretty scattered on a table or in a glass vase at any type of party or celebration.
