Are you looking for some quick and easy free crochet patterns to use up any leftover yarn you have? Maybe you only have one skein of a color, and don’t know what to do with it? I have so many scraps and leftover yarn in my stash that I am always needing projects to use it up. If you’re looking for some free stash busting crochet patterns, I’ve got you covered!

Some of my blogging friends and I have gotten together to put together an event called the Stash Busting Challenge where you’ll be able to get free pdf patterns! It’s week 2 of the challenge already, so let’s jump right in!

What is the Stash Busting Challenge?

This challenge is all about use up that yarn in your stash you’ve been meaning to use, with quick and easy crochet patterns that you can finish super quickly. For the month of April, a group of us crochet designers will be having one of our crochet patterns be available as a FREE PDF download on Ravelry for an entire week. Each pattern is super simple to make, and is perfect for using up your leftover yarn. There’s everything from accessories to home decor!

If you make any of these crochet patterns, be sure to use the hashtag #sbchallenge, so we can share your projects!

Want to save this pattern for later? Save it to your favorite Pinterest Board!

How do you get the patterns?

Doesn’t that sound great? So you might be wondering, how do you get them? I’ve put together a roundup here, with instructions on how to get each pattern below the photo of the design. The instructions include the links to all of the FREE patterns on each designer’s blog, where they have a button that takes you to their Ravelry pattern link. Just use the code SBCHALLENGE before checkout, and you’ll be able to get it for FREE! We have it structured this way, so that it’s like a fun scavenger hunt and it really helps us designers out by you visiting our blogs!

Let’s get to the patterns!
