Hello! I found you through academics knit. I just wanted to comment that acrylic yarn makes good baby afgans (yes, even Red Heart). If you crochet, the Seija blanket in The Happy Hooker is fast and easy.
Course, if you really can't stand the thought of using red heart (ewww, just typing that made my fingers twitch) donate it to a local elementary school. My kids' art teacher was thrilled to get several bags of assorted acrylics (my mil bought bunches for me at a yard sale), and I was equally thrilled to get rid of the stuff.
Oh, and I found you through academics knit.
