thrilled with this

 
 
so I had this idea.
 
And this denim toned blue yarn.
 
I wanted a true random insert blanket.

 
so I unwrapped the skeins of blue.
 
Reach into the bulk of each skein and cut three times.
 
Gathered up some scrappy bits in the colors you might find on a mountain lake property.
 
And started my yarn balls.
 
As I came to a cut, I tied on a length of scrap. Some were 20 inches, some were yards.

 
then I crocheted a rectangular granny.
 
I am IN LOVE with how this filled with random color bits.
 
baby Chase's mommy liked it too.
 
Here is a great pattern for getting started on the Rectangle Granny. Instead of ending with just a few rows, keep going until the blanket is the size you wish.
