Featuring two colours, this blanket design incorporates stylised cable chains created with both stranded colourwork and cable stitches, intersecting across wide, contrasting bands.

The 10-stitch repeat is simple to memorise, ensuring an enjoyable knitting experience.

The blanket starts with the bottom border; the side borders are picked up and worked after completing the main body of the blanket.

The textured stitch borders create a subtle fluted effect and are mitred for a neat finish.

Once completed, be sure to block the blanket for a beautiful finish.

This project is perfect for intermediate to advanced knitters.
