DIY Beer dispenser (tap) on the wall in the kitchen (like in bar)

More Party Ideas? June 1, by Shellie Wilson.

I always wanted to have the beer taps at home. You know, exactly the same like in bars or in restaurants. Why ? Because it is cool 🙂 It can be used during parties because You can pour anything You want from such taps: beer, cider, wine, water, and even whiskey (‘I’ve really tested it) and juice. It is up to You if You want to have gas in liquid (beer, cider) or no gas at all (water, whiskey etc).

So as you can see the beer taps could be also used during ordinary days. My kids love to pour the soda water from them. Really.

It turns that installation for home taps is in fact pretty easy.

An Easy Scarf to Use Up All Your Scraps

If you’ve been around here long, you know that I’m in a perpetual battle with my stash. I feel like I haven’t bought yarn in years unless I needed it for a specific project. I knit fairly a lot, and crochet some, too, but it feels like my stash never gets any smaller.

It’s not just the unused balls of yarn that are a problem. In fact, maybe a bigger issue is all the odd balls and leftover bits that seem to pile up without any effort. Even though I love scrappy projects (and knit a whole sweater dress with scraps earlier this year) it still feels like a never-ending quest to use up all the little bits.

So I’m always on the lookout for good patterns that are made to use of the extra bits of yarn. If they are super easy, too, that’s so much the better.

So it is with the Lalu Scarf by Sheena Stone. This any yarn, any gauge pattern is designed to use up whatever scraps you have on hand (assuming they’re mostly the same weight or can be held double to make the same weight). 

It’s a tube scarf worked in the round, and she specifically notes that she works it outside in, so the back of the scarf is on the outside as you knit. The needle tips are on the part of the circle farthest away from you as you knit.

It also has an attached I-cord edging, which sounds really time consuming but does give the edges a nice, finished look.

The way the colors are changed as you knit you don’t really need a lot of each color. It would probably be good if you had at least enough of a color to complete one round, but you can change colors more often than every round if you need to because you’re using all your tiny bits.

Grab the free pattern on Ravelry.
