More on the Yarn Scraps
For our bag, we wanted to use yarn that was given to us. There was a light blue blanket that someone started, we did not know the exact pattern, so we took out the stitches and made a ball of yarn. There was another full skein of multi-color yarn, and a partial skein of grey.
All are medium weight yarn from Main Stays Crafts. It is 100% acrylic yarn. This was great for our practice bag. When we have the time, we would like to make it using one of the yarns discussed previously.
You could make this all using one yarn color or different colors like this one.

Stitch Markers, optional. You may want to use it to keep track of your rows. However, we used our tape measure to help make sure that each rectangle was the same size.
