What to do with small amount of glamourous thread?
I was given 25 g of thread with a glitter tape with it. The tape is so tiny it is invisible but light glances off of it. I thought I had two balls of it but after crocheting a 3 x 12 inch piece, I found the other ball did not match.
All I can think of is a bracelet. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

What about some fabulous earrings? Threads are wonderful for that type of project.

These are all good suggestions. Thank you. I wouldn't want to blow my nose on the hankie, but I guess you mean one to decorate a pocket! I just celebrated my 90th birthday so I don't even know what a Kelly doll is!

You could crochet some buttons or button covers. Here's a few links:

I have crocheted bouquets for ladies in the retirement home. They love them and the bouquet never needs watering.

Don't have anything to add, everybody has such great ideas! A Kelly doll is a 4" doll- little sister to the 11" Barbie doll! She is quite popular with the little girls because she is a perfect size! And you don't need much yarn to make clothes for her! I make clothes for them and sell them at Craft Fairs!
