If a scarf: sew them all together and maybe do a row of sc around the entire thing.
If a blanket: you might have enough to make the size blanket you want to make more squares or make solid strips to put between strips of squares - depending on final size of the blanket (baby blanket, lapghan, full sized blanket, etc)
Maybe a poncho or a shawl - again same questions. I have also seen vests and skirts of granny squares - some have the back solid and the front of squares...
Anyway - you get the idea. Once you decide what you want the final project to be then you can decide what you need to do to complete it.Pat
Marie says, obviously ,especiallly when doubled, a rug, also some nice placemats and matching coasters,toaster cover, etc...jackets, especially nice one on the caron free patterns website,thin ply for lovely and unique curtains,4 around and one on top for toilet tissue holder(after affixing them to a firm cardboard, of course)..oh yes, slippers, leg warmers, a retro belt! Another day, an article onn uses for scrap yarn, and "mistakes"..
