Log cabin pattern potholder

The log cabin pattern is one of my favorite potholder patterns. The only trick is that on pegs 9 and 10 one color is repeated (both horizontally and vertically).

Here's how to make it for an 18-peg potholder.*

Colors: Robin's egg blue and white

Vertical: Attach loops from left to right as below:

1. blue

2. white

3. blue

4. white

5. blue

6. white

7. blue

8. white

9. blue

10. blue

11. white

12. blue

13. white

14. blue

15. white

16. blue

17. white

18. blue

Horizontal: Weave in loops from bottom to top, following the same pattern as above.

*The very helpful Piglet's Potholder Patterns site has weaving charts with interesting variations of the log cabin pattern for both 18-peg and 27-peg looms.
