NOTE: Deb tried this pattern out for me and used about 21 ounces of Red Heart Super Saver and she said the blanket was just under the 45" length. Therefore I am estimating you will need somewhere between 24-28oz depending on the yarn and how tightly you crochet to finish the baby size version of this afghan.
H hook
Reg. WW yarn (may use all one color or coordinating colors)
Ch 129
Row 1: 3dc in 4th ch from hook, *sk 1 ch, sc in next ch, sk 1 ch, 3dc in next ch. Repeat from * across to last 2 chains, sk next ch, sc in last ch.
Row 2: Ch 2, turn. 3dc in first sc, sk 1 ch, sc in middle stitch of 3dc shell below, skip 1 ch, 3dc in next sc across, repeat from * across to last 3dc shell, sk 2 ch and sc in last stitch (should be turning chain.
Row 3: Ch 2, turn. 3dc in first sc, *Skip first dc, Sc in middle dc of 3dc shell, skip next dc and 3dc in next sc. Repeat from * across to last 3dc group, sk 2 dc, sc in last dc of 3dc group.
Row 4: Ch 2, turn. 3dc in first sc, sk 1 ch, sc in middle stitch of 3dc shell below, skip 1 ch, 3dc in next sc across, repeat from * across to last 3dc shell, sk 2 ch and sc in last stitch (should be turning chain).
Repeat row 3 and 4 for 90 rows (15 color changes if changing colors every six rows)until piece measures 45" long. Finish off and make sure to weave in all ends. If you use more than one color, change colors every six rows.
