Drumroll, please.....
What: My first Log Cabin blanket
Yarn: Lion Brand Cotton Ease, more details below
Needles: 8
Pattern: Inspired by Mason Dixon Knitting.
Lesson Learned: None. I adore this method of making blankets.
Destination: Warm The World.
From corner to corner, the blanket is 50.5”.
I used the following colors of Cotton Ease: Banana Cream, Popsical [sic] Blue, Pineapple, Sugarplum, Blueberry, Cherry Red, Pistachio, Orangeade, Candy Blue, and Bubble Gum.
I started with one skein of each color and had this much left over:
I’m very happy with how this blanket turned out. Even though it got a bit tedious near the end, I loved knitting it.
The Shepherds are a bit tougher to impress:
Last night it was stormy and I snapped this shot out the back door:
