This pattern produces a round carpet with cables.

I used 1500 meters of cotton string (3 mm thick) and a 5 mm crochet hook (size H in the US) to obtain a diameter of 110 cm (43 inches). The pattern has 49 rounds and is a lot easier than it seems. The whole work took me about 10 hours.

The carpet is worked in a spiral, so as to avoid that ugly seam running from the center to the edge. Remember: don’t close any rounds with a slip stitch!

You can use any yarn, but remember one thing: the crochet hook needs to be almost twice as thick as the yarn!!!

If you use a yarn of different thickness than my 3 mm cord then the diameter will change, but I can’t predict by how much.

This pattern has been first published in Polish on my blog in three parts as a CAL countdown to Winter:
