I have gone ballband crazy. Dishcloths and potholder sets along with Method dish soap will be given as gifts to all teachers this holiday season. I am ready to venture on to other MD projects. I would like to try a Log Cabin blanket. What yarns have you all found that work best? Recommendations?

Log Cabin....Discloth cotton is too heavy and doesn't hold its shape. I like the pattern and may try it with sportweight yarn.
Hi! I'm knitting my Log Cabin from plain ol' wool (Patons Classic Wool and Highland Wool from elann.com). The wool is light and springy, and it holds its shape beautifully. And it's *warm*.
I posted my Log Cabin here earlier in August, but here's a direct link if you want to see it:

(It's much bigger now; I'll post a new photo soon.)
A cotton blend or wool blend might work nicely; it's amazing what a little acrylic or microfiber can do!

I'm making a log cabin moderne baby blanket with Blue Sky Alpaca dyed organic cotton. It comes in great colors; I'm using bright pink and oranges and green. It's not cheap, but incredibly soft and lovely.
