I bought this yarn at Wal-Mart or Zeller's...one of those pre-bagged deals, but not "1lb Unknown Fiber". These had labels...Promo-Fil? Okay, a quick search on Ravelry and I did
find it. Made by the "Easy Knit" company. LOL. I did keep a label, but can't find it at the moment. It's a cotton, rayon, acrylic blend. It feels like crap. Plastic. Dry. I suppose it's "soft" in a sense, but I would hate to wear something made of it. OMG. I was just looking at the projects on Ravelry with this yarn....and there's my "W" tank. That I've never worn cause the yarn sucked and didn't dye right. As I was working this blanket, it reminded me of that vest, but I thought I had used something different (and that perhaps it had been the dye that made it feel awful).
So, it's just another crochet granny square blanket. Not too big. I still have quite a bit of the third ball left but I just didn't want to work on it anymore. It weighs 236 gr. I'm sure it's fine for a baby, it's not like it's stiff like cardboard...but it's about as snuggly as cardboard, LOL. My opinion only, of course.
Looks pretty enough.

I made an afghan for my granddaughter with this yarn (same colour as your shawl), when she was a very little girl. Now she's grown quite tall, and I wanted to add onto her afghan, but this yarn is no longer available. :( Guess I'll make it larger with a solid red, instead of the variegated.
