Being interested in trying out different yarns, I ordered a package of seller’s choice yarns in a bundle. I was going to make a baby blanket, but I ran out of yarn, and when I tried to get more, I found I had discarded the label, and did not know what it was. Anyway, after crocheting up about three fourths of it, and continuing a week later, it turned out that I did not have the same feel for it that I had before. The result was that it is ruffled on one edge. In spite of the apparent color differences these are all the same piece, photographed under different conditions.
This could be used as a ruffly scarf. I did like working with this hard to see yarn. The total weight of the yarn was 3.9 oz. So a baby blanket would require a bout 12 ounces. This yarn was 90% cotton, and 10% nylon, wherein the fluffy part is the cotton, and the string holding it is the nylon.
What did I learn doing this?
- The yarn is nice.
- One cannot see what one is doing while working on it.
- Do not wait ver long between starting and finishing such a project.
- One needs to use quite big stitches.
