For this project you will need: HOOK: 5 mm hook or size H hook for the US YARN: All the scrap yarn colors were worsted weight yarn 4 ply US, 10 ply AU Also the Off white color I used in between as well. I was able to get 10 rows of Off white before I had to change to a new skein. I used 2 and a 1/2 skeins of it, but I didn’t make a border. If you wish to, then I would grab a third. I didn’t want to use much of this color because it's a scrap yarn afghan and don't want you to have to go get more yarn. About the color pattern Since this pattern uses scrap yarn, I won't be telling you which colors to use. I used this color wheel to help me organize my color choices. I've never been a fan of the mixed color of scrap yarn afghans so I decided to do mine in a more organized fashion starting with my Maroons, Reds, Oranges, Browns, Yellows, Golds, Greens, Blues, Purples, Pinks and back to the beginning of the color list. Feel free to go with what feels right to you. This Jagged Scrap yarn afghan is made using a stitch I discovered while playing around with yarn. I don't know why all my discovered stitches mostly use two stitches to create and this one is no different. Lol. But other than the butterfly stitch this one is surely the most easiest one to recreate! Let me take you step by step on how to make this stitch so you can use it in making your own scrap yarn afghan to use up some of your left over wool.

Work up something new with this No Beginning Chain Basket Throw. Even though it uses bulky yarn, it's light for summer because of the chainless crochet.

You don't start off with a typical chain stitch- you actually do the opposite! Find out what it means to make a crochet blanket with no beginning by following this tutorial.
Margot Baby Blanket Free Crochet Pattern
"With the Margot Baby Blanket i found a crochet stitch which is actually a filet crochet stitch pattern and then i integrated a border seamlessly so you just crochet the border on both sides of the blanket as you are crocheting along which automatically gives it a finish look, how easy is that! On the top and bottom of the blanket i didn’t put any border on as i actually quite liked it already and felt it didn’t need a border but you can add a border if you wish. This crochet blanket pattern is suitable for a beginner."
Color Wheel Blanket Crochet Pattern
The color wheel blanket is a festivity of color! You can choose your own color scheme or go wild with all the leftovers you still have. Either way, you'll have a wonderful blanket to show for all the hard work. Stitches used in this pattern are chain, slip stitch, bobble stitch, double crochet 4 together, and double crochet. The motifs measure approximately 13 cm when joined, so you can make the blanket pretty much any size you want. For this blanket I came up with a semi-randomized color sequence to get that great rainbow feel, which I highly recommend trying.
Hexagon Crochet Blanket Pattern
The best thing about crocheting this hexagon afghan is getting to play with different color combinations. The pattern chose a palette of greens, reddish browns, and blues but this pattern would also work up great in a more monochromatic color scheme. The creative options are endless!
Oasis Baby Blanket
I went for gender neutral colors and used a bobbly stitch that would work no matter what colors you choose. Plus, this crochet baby blanket pattern is a great stash buster. You can use any yarn you have and create a different color bobble row to use up your scraps! For mine, I went with blues and greens. I had several different shades and only about a skein and a half of each so it worked out. Here is the Oasis Blanket, a fun blanket pattern that's perfect for moms on the go.
