What: My second Log Cabin blanket
Yarn: Caron Simply Soft and Caron Simply Soft Brites, more details below
Needles: 8
Pattern: Traditional Log Cabin blanket
Lesson Learned: I still love these blankets. They are perfect TV knitting and I love playing with the colors.
Destination: Warm The World
From corner to corner, the blanket is 47″. It is 34″ on each side.
I used the following colors of Simply Soft (well less than one skein of each): Plum Wine, Black, Dark Country Blue, Iris, Grey Heather, Autumn Red, and Dark Sage.
I used the following colors of Simply Soft Brites (well less than one skein of each): Berry Blue, Grape, Watermelon, Limelight, Blue Mint, Lemonade, and Mango.










I love that blanket! I never heard of log cabin blankets. Do all of them have the same pattern? I love Caron’s Simply Soft… so VERY SOFT!
I am a knitter, too, and would love to make a blanket like that. Can this be a scrap yarn project?
YEAH!!!
I love it too!
The black border looks great!
You are Awesome with those blankets!!
Someone is going to be very happy to get this one!!
It looks great! I love the way the colors all work together! =)
Amazing! Love the colors you chose. It’s a piece of art.
Beautifully done! Lovely color combos! The black border really makes everything pop!

It turned out great, Kathy!
It looks wonderful.
You sure do knit these suckers up fast.
The black border makes it look “art deco!” Simply goregous, but then again, isn’t aht the standard for all your blankets?
I can’t wait to see the next one!
It turned out beautifully!
Just wonderful! Congrats on finishing another one!! I love how you took the picture with the light playing over it, very neat.
I love it too. When I knit one I’m goin gto use a similar color concept as you did, it’s just too cool.
Kathy- it’s absolutely stunning. what a good use of color!! great job
I must, I must knit one of these!!!! Lovely.
I love your colors! I am working on my first one and it’s so totally disorganized, color-wise. I will be doing one more stripe… I think… they are so addictive and you just want to keep going. I will make a border, though, still searching for what I want to do for that. Any suggestions? Also, I am wondering if you had a color “plan”, or just dropped to the couch, knitting. Thanks.
Where did you find the Traditional Log Cabin Blanket pattern? Thanks Jean
