Each crayon takes about 120 yds black, 200 yds label color, and 75 yds tip color.
Crayons are knit separately and then seamed together.
Make the blanket bigger or smaller by varying the number of crayons.
Vary the length of the crayons by changing the length of the plain portion of the label (though yarn requirements will also change!)
The yarn colors are as follows (using knit picks shine sport):
description | “wax” color | label color
red | Serrano | Blush
orange | Marmalade | Marmalade
yellow | Caution | Butter
green | Grass | Green Apple
blue | River | Sky
purple | Iris | Hydrangea
