You could use your scrap thread for a sort of multicolored background. You'd have to knot in each color, but you could probably do it. An example of this would be on @clairehair's etsy shop. She has a bracelet for sale with a multicolored background. Her etsy is LordofTheLooms. Hope this helped! 😊

a rag rug bracelet is a super cute idea especially if you have smaller pieces of string that wouldn’t fit into a regular bracelet! kinsey b. on youtube has a really great tutorial and it’s a super easy bracelet!!

I usually use my scrap threads to make rag rugs!

I use many different patterns but just wanna see that I don't have a lot to knot with that colour. Usually before I go and make a alpha I look in my box with scraps and look if I can find the colour I need

The rug rag alpha, or any alpha if you wanted to.

For most alphas I make, I use exclusively scrap thread (besides the background color). Just try and be more intentional of using your scarp thread for bracelets, and always check your scrap thread before opening a new skein. 👍
