Leftover yarn

Just finished a project?
Weaving in the ends is done?
Not sure what to do with the leftovers?
DON'T THROW THEM AWAY!

I found this idea on Pinterest and will use it from now on.
1. Pick up all the leftover yarn
2. Put the leftovers together with knots
3. Make a ball of the knotted yarn
4. Use the ball for a colorful project
