Pattern Recs That Don't Require Lots of Yarn

[mossy_bench]

Hi everyone! I hope people still follow this community. I was wondering if anyone had any pattern recommendations for projects that don't require lots of yarn—roughly less than 300 yards, maybe. (ETA: I'm not looking for anything in particular! Just curious about people's personal favorite patterns. ^^)

If you're on Ravelry (free) you can use advanced search for patterns and specify yardage. That should work for you?

Cowls, hats, headbands, small toys, doilies/mandalas, mitts...you can make a lot with 300 yards! Was there something in particular you were looking to make?

I've got a bunch of cute little animals that I make: Dolphins, flying pigs, stingrays, and now hippos!

Shoot, that reminds me, I really need to take down the download link for the stingray pattern now that aquariums are open again...

I was really into amigurumi for a little while. It can be great for small things that do not require a lot of yarn. If you are unfamiliar with amigurumi, Planet June has some free beginners' tutorials that I found very helpful.

In addition to those tutorials, I have made Freddie the Fish. This pattern needs safety eyes.

I have also made this mushroom. This blog with the totally sketchy name has other crochet patterns.

I've made a lot of these hair kerchiefs with ends of skeins, they're comfortable, handy, and quick to make. I have a collection of my own and have given them as gifts to people who admired mine.
