i usually use scrap yarn to make things for myself, and though they may work/fit just fine, i often use them as a chance to try new techniques or yarns... and they often end up as less-than-visually-appealing.
case in point is this little ... well, case.
i decided to test some of my new plastic-fabric in my serger. i had a perfect project for it- i needed a small case to put my thumb-drive in that would keep dust and crumbs out of it. aand....
as you can see, it's sitting on my WIP... a convenient place to show the design.
so... it's a serged pouch, with a snap closure. functional, but certainly falls in the UBF category.
notes for next time: when working with plastic fab in the serger, adjust tension before stitching! (duh.. i know... call me lazy) also, use velcro for closure, as snap is too strong for the plastic fab, and will likely tear through quickly
i may post more of my 'lovely' UBF items.... or i may refrain and post NICE things i make instead. one will just have to see
