Description
This geometric cable baby blanket is the perfect modern accessory for your nursery. The contemporary diamond motif includes diamonds overlaid on vertical stripes of delicate 2-cross cables. The diamonds are made by post-stitches and joined by cable stitches.

Diagrams are included for the cable stitches used, and select cable stitches also have video tutorials (links below). A complete stitch diagram for the blanket is included in the pattern, in addition to a written pattern.

The blanket is backed by flannel fabric to make it extra warm and cozy, and the pattern includes instructions for hand-sewing this fabric backing to the blanket.
