I completed my biggest knitting project to date-a Modern Log Cabin blanket for my youngest son. I started the blanket on July 31, 2006 and it was completed October 16, 2006. I chose the colors based upon those he chose for the art in his college apartment. The yarns I used were Plymouth Galway (Orange, Dark Orange, Chocolate Brown, Green, and Cream) and Nature Spun (Grecian Olive) on size 7 needles.
The colorway turned out beautiful. My son loved how it turned out and actually makes his bed now- a first in his 19 years! The blanket turned out to be very big- Queen sized in fact. Once I started I couldn't stop until it was completed. I love how it turned out. Now my husband wants one for us- not sure I want another Queen sized blanket, but I wouldn't mind one to curl up with on the sofa!
