i want to make a blanket, crochet- how much of this would i need to make a adult size blanket?

Hello - this will make a beautiful blanket - you will need 10 - 12 balls - be sure to use a larger hook like an "N" or a "P". Gena Hester, Yarn Designers Boutique, toll free 888 538 2725.

Is this yarn suitable for making crocheted rugs?

Yes, this yarn would be suitable. I have not crocheted with it but it knits up beautifully. However, I do believe it will slide so you might want to put some latex backing on the finished rug. Hope this is helpful.

What's the fabric content of this yarn? I can't tell. Is it a wool/acrylic blend? What percentage of each? Thanks!

It is a wool/acrylic blend. Each color is a different blend. The most common on the colors I've bought is 80% acrylic 20% wool. On the wheat, it's 86% acrylic, 10% wool & 4% other fabric. They are all listed a machine washable.
