Material:

​As far as types of yarn, I like to use the polyesters but if you prefer cotton, just let me know.  There are way too many to list here so I am suggesting that if you'd like to see colors and types, go on line and search for baby blanket yarns.   The brands I prefer are Bernat, Lion Brand, and Premier.  Let me know what you've found and some of your selections and I will order it.  No extra charge for this.  If you would rather just tell me a color choice and let me decide on the shade, type of yarn and stitch, I am very happy to do that for you. I may already have what you want in my yarn stash!
