Stash-Buster Blanket



For a few years now, I have been accumulating a stash of leftover bits of wool and wool blend yarns. There wasn't enough of any one color to make a whole item, so I decided to use them to make a blanket for Warm Woolies. I used 2 plastic grocery bags full of partial skeins, about 2.5 lbs of yarn. I think there are 39 different yarns in all. I used worsted weight yarns doubled or bulky yarn alone on size 9 needles. This is one warm blankie! The final dimensions are about 45 x 52.
