how much yardage is needed for a baby blanket
Crochet a few inches of the pattern, and then unravel to see how much you've used. This will give you a more precise estimate of the yarn you will require. For example, crocheting 4 inches of a baby blanket uses 200 yards.If the baby blanket is going to be 24 inches long, then you will need 1,200 yards.rocheting with worsted and sport weight yarns falls somewhere in between. Extrapolate from those estimates to guess how much you'd need for other projects. If a baby blanket is 20-by-20 inches, the area of an adult sweater would be a little over twice that, so you would need a little more than twice as much yarn.
