If you are like me and hate weaving in yarn ends, you are going to love making these scrappy blankets with a magic yarn ball.
Using an easy invisible yarn joining technique, hundreds of little scraps can be joined to make a giant continuous ball of yarn, in a fun rainbow of colours then crocheted together with no ends to weave in later.
