Log Cabin blocks are known for their versatility when the placement of individual blocks within the square is adjusted. Although a somewhat traditional Log Cabin pattern is used to make these cozy wrist warmers, an uneven log cabin motif is created when the block is folded over for seaming and wearing. The angles and final appearance look like a completely different design. I’ve used Three Irish Girl’s squishy Springvale Worsted yarn to make this set in a gorgeous fade of colors. Be careful in your yarn color choice and avoid anything too muddy or the effect is lost.
