When I first learned to knit cables, a whole new world of possibilities opened up to me. I was completely captivated by the beautiful textures and intricate designs I could create. It wasn’t long before this fascination turned into an obsession, and I knew I had to design a pattern that combined the classic elegance of cables with the delicate beauty of lace.

I wanted to create a design that was both visually stunning and a joy to knit. The result is an afghan pattern that marries the best of both worlds, creating a fabric that is not only beautiful but also has a lovely, flowing drape.
This blanket holds a very special place in my heart, as it’s the first afghan I ever designed. It was a true labor of love that ignited a passion for creating and an ongoing obsession with design. I hope you find as much joy in knitting this pattern as I did in creating it, and that your finished blanket brings you warmth and comfort for years to come.
