Awhile back I blogged about some amazing baby blanket yarn, and here is the finished product. Because the yarn is super duper thick, I decided to make a granny square with it. Otherwise, at least in the South, it might just be too heavy. It turned out great, and I am in love with the yarn now. In fact, I’m thinking of making some larger afghans with it for some future holiday gifts. Unfortunately, most of the colors it comes in are more for babies, but there are a few, such as a pretty peach color, that I think I can use for a non-baby afghan.

The finished size is 30 inches, and I ended up having to purchase an extra skein to finish it. As I suspected, the 10.5 oz size was just not going to be enough for one baby afghan, even a small one. I probably used a little less than half of another skein of the same size, and I managed to use a 40% off coupon when I picked up the second skein in JoAnn’s. So it was about $5 for it. Now I am just going to be on the lookout for it to go on sale and stock up when I can.
