Skill Level: Intermediate. Here’s an intermediate-level project for knitters comfortable with cable techniques.

Color-Coded System: There are 6 different cable stitches in this pattern. I have created a color-coded system in both the written and chart patterns to easily discern the different cable stitches at a glance. I hope it helps you, too.

Active Time to Complete: 40 to 60 hours. This blanket takes a bit longer to finish than easier textures since you will be paying close attention to the pattern row-by-row while cable stitching throughout. I estimate it takes approximately 40 to 60 hours to complete, depending on your personal knitting speed.

I found inspiration for this cable blanket from the curved streets around the natural hills in one of my favorite San Francisco neighborhoods, Diamond Heights. It is modified from my popular Diamond Hill Loop Cable pattern to knit up a fully realized knitted project.
