This particular blanket does not have a yarn “usage” amount as it was created to be a stash-buster and to be able to use the colors you have on hand, or would like to use to work this piece of whimsy.
Here is what Julianne has to say about yarn:
When I designed this pattern, it was in an attempt to use up my yarn stash. Because of that, the exact amounts of yarn you’ll need are a bit tough to say. If I say to use red, and you have a burgundy color, use that! If I say yellow and you have a varying shade of yellow, use that! I didn’t want all the greens to match or the blues, etc… and because of that, this blanket couldn’t be any more colorful if I tried! If you use up your stash, you and I both know that means… one thing and one thing only… YOU GET TO GO SHOPPING FOR MORE!!!
