Wow. Four posts in five days!?!
Last night, I cast on for a log cabin garter stitch blanket. I debated whether to use my Lavish alpaca in these colors:

or maybe go with some of the variegated wool I have in my stash for a brighter blanket. Neither yarns are machine washable and I don't have enough of anything else in my stash that is... I refuse to go out and buy more yarn, so that's not a deciding point. =) After playing with some color layouts, I decided to go with the alpaca. Since I used just over 3 skeins of the darkest colorway already on other projects, I felt more secure limiting myself to these two choices for my block layout:
I like both, but I think I like B better. As long as I have enough yarn, I'll do some type of edging on it as well - maybe in crochet. It'll be awhile before I need to think about that though. heh

Love the colors! I think it is going to look awesome...
ReplyDeleteI've started on the cream and so far, I really like how it's looking. We'll see how far I get with the yarn I have. I'll be happy if I just get the main part done, if not the two squares at the bottom. It'll make a nice blanket for on the couch.
