Beating the rush

Usually, I wait until November to begin my holiday gift knitting and then I am knitting like a mad woman. I thought I would get a jump on the season by doing a little bit along the way. Coming directly from the Mason Dixon Ladies, I am working on a modern version of the Log Cabin blanket. I am using Brown Sheep & Co. Superwash wool. I will keep y'all posted with the color scheme. I am not much of wool fan, but after working with Cascade 22o, I think that I can handle wool. . .we'll see.
