Yarn Suggestions for Babies
Here is a list of yarns that are suitable for making baby items. I suggest using Baby, Sport and DK weight yarns for clothing and hats. And you could use a soft worsted weight yarn for blankets.
I do not recommend Red Heart Super Saver as it is too scratchy and stiff. I would also stay away from the dishcloth cottons, they are also too stiff.
