Blanket with Celtic Cable Design

This pattern can be used to create a blanket, throw or bed runner of any size. Suggested sizes are provided for moses basket and crib blankets, single, double, queen and kingsize bed blankets and a bed runner.

The centre panel features a raised and textured design in the form of a Celtic knot.

Worked in UK front post treble and double crochet (US front post double crochet and single crochet), the panel is surprisingly easy to master.

Quantities of yarn vary widely. However, as a guide, a 76cm (30") x 51 (20") Moses basket sized blanket, will require 800m Aran/WW yarn, a 5.00mm hook, a tape measure or ruler and a needle for neatening ends.

Gauge: 18sts and 22 rows to 5" square - measured over centre panel cable repeat.

This pattern is written in UK terms with a table of US equivalents provided as applicable.

All patterns are independently tested.

Help file included to assist with working the border.
