Log Cabin Gansey Blanket

Join Carol Feller for a unique blanket that will blend Log Cabin Style with Gansey Stitches. The blanket uses the ‘Log Cabin’ style of construction where it starts with a small garter stitch central square. This then grows by working small strips outwards from this centre by picking up stitches and working a new strip on each side. First released as the Blanket Club 2025. If you would like full video tutorial support, then you can still purchase the [Blanket Club 2025 digital option here.][1] We are putting a twist on this traditional style blanket, using a combination of garter stitch and gansey style knit/purl stitches to work this interesting construction with some added fun! You can find yarn kits [here.][2] **SIZES** Lap (Throw, Bedspread) **FINISHED MEASUREMENTS Width:** 33.25 (49, 64.5)”/ 84.5 (124.5, 164) cm **Depth:** 49 (64.5, 80)”/ 124.5 (164, 203) cm Sample shown in Throw Size. **YARN** Wooldreamers ‘Mota’ (100% Wool; 252 yds/ 230 m per 3.6 oz/ 100g); **Colour 1:** Orange (150G); 3 (6, 9) skeins **Colour 2:** Eggshell Blue (719); 1 (2, 3) skeins **Colour 3:** Light Blue (526G); 1 (2, 3) skeins **Colour 4:** Bright Turquoise (834G); 1 (2, 4) skeins Colour 5: Teal (1526G); 2 (3, 4) skeins **Approx yardage: Colour 1:** 732 (1364, 2185) yds / 668 (1245, 1994) m **Colour 2:** 175 (350, 583) yds / 160 (319, 532) m **Colour 3:** 225 (450, 749) yds / 205 (410, 684) m **Colour 4:** 252 (504, 860) yds / 230 (460, 784) m **Colour 5:** 308 (616, 1008) yds / 281 (562, 920) m **GAUGE** 18 sts and 36 rows = 4”/ 10 cm in Garter Stitch with smaller needle 18 sts and 28 rows = 4”/ 10 cm in Gansey Stitches with larger needle **NEEDLES AND NOTIONS** US size 6 / 4 mm any type for working flat for Garter Stitch US size 7 / 4.5 mm any type for working flat for Gansey Stitch (you will also need dpns or circular needle if working I-Cord edging) *Always use a needle size that gives you the gauge listed, as every knitter’s gauge is unique.* Tapestry needle, lockable stitch markers or safety pins to marker outer edges.
