Yellow Baby Afghan



Another little baby blankie, made of yellow and yellow-toned squares. Most of the yarn was given to me by my grandma, who works with a couple of knitting charities in Wisconsin (they agreed that she could give me some of their free yarns as long as I was donating and not selling- "what difference does it make if it goes to a baby in Illinois instead of a baby in Wisconsin?"). However, it's free yarn, so there's no guarantee there will be a lot of the same color. I looked at what I had sitting around, and put together all the yellows I had, and then added 2 more small skeins fresh from JoAnn's, to round it all out. I used one of the skeins I bought to connect all the squares, and then the other to border the whole thing (but only had enough left to go around once).
