Botched Efforts
 

A friend once told me that she never discarded half-done projects, or things
that hadn't turned out right. She saved them and used them for creating
sweaters and knitted clothing for dolls she made. She would also pick up
any half-done projects that sometimes fine their way into garage sales or
thrift stores.

So, we don't have to rip 'em down after all.

Personally, I usually tear 'em down and use them and other wool bits for
blankets or scarves. But, I have used some bungled bits to make a teddy
sweater once. Worked like a charm.

Oh I don't really have "plenty". But I have a few, and I do have the
best of intentions of finishing them. If I really think a project
isn't working out I tend to undo it and save the yarn for something
else. But I did just inherit a number of my mother's unfinished
projects and I'm feeling a little crowded by plastic bags with
knitting needles poking out of them. :)

OHHH i know that ,,, have had it ,,,, i inherited some of my mother`s
unfinnished things as well as a Cousin of mY FIL ,,,, i divided the
,aterials , donated some of the needles to an organization that wanted
them ,,, some of the unfinnished stuff was given some converted into
felted pieces , and some were made into all kinds of little bags and
sold for charity ,,,

FREE FORM knitting might help you , it enables you to combine lots of
various pieces into one big work ,,,

Absolutely right! You never know when they'll come in handy. I have a lot
of UFO's ... mine tend to be scattered though. One of these years I'm going
to make it my goal to finish them all. I did that once and had a wonderful
time finishing things I hadn't touched in years and years.
