Scrap Yarn Baby Blanket

 Remember this yarn from my stash?  I was having trouble deciding on a pattern to use with it and was wanting to make a Fantasy Blanket out of it but didn't have enough yarn.
 So I bought two skeins of yarn but it still wasn't enough.
Well, I finally decided on a pattern after a long time of "thinking" on it.  I'm using the Bouncy Ball Baby Blanket Free Pattern on the Deb's Crafts blog.  You can find the pattern by clicking here. I've actually made one of these before but in a full sized blanket.  I've decided to use all the scrap yarn that I can and the extra skein of yellow that I bought.  I won't be adding the new skein of pink yet.  I don't think I will need it.
I worked up 5 of the center circles yesterday (the photo above this one) and then added the outer "square" to see how it looks.  I was hoping that the variegated yarn would work out ok as the "square" instead of the inner circle.  I think it's ok.  Maybe not perfect, but ok.  What do you think?
