This richly textured blanket deserves a luxe yarn, like the merino wool/cashmere blend used here.

Multiple panels of lovely and truly unique threaded diamond cables run the luxurious length of this blanket and are separated by pairs of mirrored braided cables.

All of the cable patterns are set against a background of Reverse Stockinette stitch with the side cables creating a neat edge. Ribbing accents are combined with the braided cables on the top and bottom edges to provide a tailored, yet interesting, start and finish.

This is a beautiful knit, especially for cable-lovers, with spectacular results. Cable patterns are both charted and written out.

A stunning gift that will be cherished for many generations and a sophisticated and elegant addition to any home’s decor.

NOTE: WHILE this yarn is considered a DK weight, it knits up more like a worsted-weight with this pattern.

GAUGES:
28 sts = 6 ¼“ 5.5 cm and 22 rows = 4” 10 cm in Threaded Diamond Cable; 14 sts = 2 ¾” 7 cm in Mirrored Braided Cables
