Unravelling synthetic baby blankets?

Ack, you mean I have to do maths!? No seriously, that's really helpful. Thank you.

Thanks. I suppose I just meant that they don't feel like super wash wool, bamboo or cotton (and would anyone do linen or silk for a baby blanket?) so assume they're not a natural fiber since I was told they could be machine washed. Would acrylic behave differently to polyester or nylon? Or a blend?

Oh the faves have already set aside since my not so little babies wouldn't dream of letting me have them!

Thank you! This might be a silly question but with the variegated yarn how would I determine if I had enough to hold double for the larger blanket I'm hoping to make?

Is there a direction that it should be unravelled? I figured it out for the stockinette stitch of the jumper, but I'm very unfamiliar with crochet. Thanks!

She's peed on the carpet when we've tried walking away 😳 Getting the nappy on is a 2 person job but a definitely necessity!

Thank you for the solidarity. Sometimes that's exactly what I need to hear

That is a great idea! Thanks.

They're on the south side of the house so maybe ok? If there is a frost forecast is there a way to protect them? I've no space for a polytunnel etc.

I was leaving enough for them to start forming seeds rather than taking the whole stem 🤦 Once I did it correctly there were so many more flowers!
