The only suggestion I would definitely make is that if you are working a single project, keep in mind the cleaning requirements for the yarns and don't mix things that would require different methods unless you are prepared to do a great deal of hand washing and perhaps reblocking.
That reminds me of a baby doll blanket my grandmother crocheted for me when I was little. It was striped in all kind of odd-ball colors and one stripe ended up felted, over the years of washing.

I took it to her once, many years later, to show her I still had it and treasured it. She didn't remember making it (she had Alzheimer's by then) but she said, "It looks like you got my scraps, bless your heart!" lol :)

I was going to get it out and post a photo, but I can't seem to find it right off hand. I'll ask my daughter when she gets home if she knows where it went. I handed it down to her to play with when she was a little girl. She doesn't play with dolls anymore, so it may be packed away somewhere.
