The densely cabled body of this lap blanket is framed with a wonderful mosaic border. Directions are also included for a version with a plain border treatment, and the center cabled section can be used alone as a baby blanket.

Mosaic stitch pattern is from Barbara G. Walker’s book “Mosaic Knitting.”
