I've been having this knitting tangent, very frustrating, something about crochet is just more "me". So what a wonderful way to "come back". :-)
I had these yarns leftover from other baby blanket projects, and one my daughter picked out. They are LB Pound of Love in white, TLC Essentials in bambi (pastels), and a RH 'something' in the lavender & pink shades.
Being a not-very-random kinda gal, I chose to alternate the colors in an A B A C pattern, which will work well with the amounts of each yarn I have too.
I have two other batches of yarn that have been "nagging" me that will work perfectly for larger blankets. One of Woolease in neutrals/classic colors, and another of eBay wools in some rather pretty colors that I think look beautiful together. Now I just need to figure out if there is enought there for a twin and a queen size blanket.

I am so with you about knitting. Crochet was one of the first crafts my mom taught me, and in the last couple years I tried to learn to knit: it just didn't work. Some things just click with different people, and crochet is that way with me. BTW--love the sherbert-themed colors of the lower pic!
I loooove your colors.
That is a serious amount of yarn. You have more than mine, and I know for sure that mine will cover my queen sized bed and have a 6" drape on each side and probably 6" on the end too - but mine is fingering weight. I think yours looks like worsted?
