Cable Knit Throw Blanket

Materials:

Yarn: Super Bulky Weight Yarn (approx. 600 yards) in a warm golden color
Needles: US Size 13 (9 mm) circular needles, 32 inches long
Stitch markers
Tapestry needle for weaving in ends
Measuring tape

Gauge:

For this project, you'll want to achieve a gauge of 10 stitches and 14 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch. To check your gauge, knit a swatch measuring at least 6x6 inches. Once completed, measure how many stitches and rows fit in 4 inches. Adjust your needle size if necessary to meet the gauge.

Abbreviations:

CO: Cast On
K: Knit
P: Purl
RS: Right Side
WS: Wrong Side
St(s): Stitch(es)
C4B: Cable 4 Back (slip 2 sts to a cable needle and hold to back, knit 2 from left needle, then knit 2 from cable needle)
C4F: Cable 4 Front (slip 2 sts to a cable needle and hold to front, knit 2 from left needle, then knit 2 from cable needle)

Instructions:

Blanket Dimensions: 45 inches wide by 60 inches long.

Body of the Blanket:

CO 75 stitches using the long-tail cast-on method.
Row 1 (RS): K across all stitches.
Row 2 (WS): P across all stitches.
Repeat rows 1 and 2 until the piece measures approximately 5 inches (this creates a ribbed border).
Begin the Cable Pattern:

Row 1: K4, C4B, K4 (repeat from * to end of row).
Row 2: K across all stitches.
Rows 3, 5, 7: K4, C4F, K4 (repeat from * to end of row).
Row 4: K across all stitches.
Continue this pattern, alternating between C4B and C4F every two rows, until the piece measures approximately 55 inches.

Continue with rows 1 and 2 again until the blanket measures a total of 60 inches from the cast-on edge.
Bind off loosely in knit stitches. Place a stitch marker every 10 stitches to help maintain an even bind-off.

Finishing:

Weave in all loose ends using a tapestry needle. To block your blanket, gently wash it in cool water and lay it flat to dry, reshaping the edges as necessary for a neat finish.

Optional Variations:

Feel free to experiment with color patterns! Use two different colors for the cables or add stripes in between the cable patterns for a unique look.
