1 & 2 Skein Patterns

[yarnjunkie]

I have 2 skeins each of 2 different colors of Lion Brand Homespun yarn, 1 skein of Lion Brand Homespun, 2 skeins of Red Heart Light & Lofty, and 1 anonymous Homespun-ish yarn...my problem is that none of the colors go well with each other in any combination. So, what is a girl to do? Any ideas or patterns that only uses 1 or 2 skeins and isn't a hat or scarf?

Here are some idea's, I did a search on google.

Lots of purses only use 1 or 2 skein's.

RebeccaV...I don't have a way to post a pic and buying yarn isn't an option for me right now but here is a link to the colors...

 

Lion Brand in Mexicana and Blueridge<-no pic on website (2 skeins) and Modern (1 skein)

 

Red Heart in Pheasant (unable to find a good pic) it's like Homespun but more coarse the color is mainly off white with bit sof burgandy and gold here and there

 

and the anonymous yarn is a deep blood red color

 

Deneen...thanks! The shawl would be perfect.
