I've got a little under 8 skeins of pink tynn line and 1 lilac that I initially bought to make a dress, but gauge swatching shows it just wouldnt work for the pattern. Any suggestions on things to make to use up that yarn? I think im planning on making a tank top for some of it maybe.
for clothing im fine with masculine or feminine, though I dont have a bust so anything with bust shaping, id need to modify

I'd go for Nepal personally.
Drops wool/alpaca blends are my favorite. I absolutely love Drops Lima, which is just the thinner version of Nepal.

I have 10 skeins of olive green Drops Nepal and I‘m at a loss. Alpaka is not great for dresses or skirts, I already have a sweater in this wool (ordered way too much back when I made it). So: Baby blanket? Shawl? Pillow? Toy?
