Have you ever combined different yarns (by manufacturer name - bernat, redheart etc) in one blanket? I could be asking a dumb question, but I found a color by Bernat that Red Heart doesn't have, and I'd like to use them together with other Red Heart yarn (one blanket).

i mix fibers and weights all the time. just use caution and keep in mind that you may have to change the size of your hook/needle to work up the same gauge and that laundering does become an issue. the only thing i don't do is mix handwash/machinewash fibers with dry clean only fibers.

As long as the weight and fiber content of the yarns are the same, it shouldn't be a problem. Don't use all wool and all acrylic in the same blanket, or you will have a nightmare when laundering it.
