One Skein Projects
When I post new yarn on social media I am most often asked "what can I make with just one skein of this?" well I've decided to compile a list with help from my followers! If you have any suggestions please add them in the comments!
I have these sorted by project type and then by weight. They are all knit patterns unless marked as crochet. I have decided not to add socks to the list because most socks only require 1 skein.

Janina Kallio has a bunch of really great one-skein shawls – I’ve made Asterism, Gravitate, and Ardent.

Pioneer gloves can be knit with less than 50g of fingering weight.

For fingering weight shawls there’s also one called “Railings” that only takes one skein
