Log cabin spread

This cloth is knit in log cabin technique and youtube has loads of videos on this technique. We really recommend cheching them out before you have a go at the actual pattern. This technique is great for improvising, and that´s what we have done.

Yarn
800 g Abuelita Merino Worsted, 200 g of each colour

Needles
Crochet needle US 11

Size
The spread fits a single bed.

The principal of the teqnique is as follows:
With Abuelita Merino Worsted cast on the number of s you like to start with on on US 11 needles. Knit as many garter ridges as you like. Knit the first stitch of each row in the back loop. Slip the last stitch of each row with the yarn in front. Bind off from the right side, but leave the last stitch on the needle. Join the new colour and pick up new stitches along the edge. Knit as many garter ridges as you like. Bind off and join the third colour in the same manner, before picking up again. Continue until the blanket has the wanted size. Weave in all ends.
