Cable Comfort Throw
Lion Brand® Wool-Ease® Thick & Quick®
GAUGE: 8 sts = 4 in. [10 cm] over St st (k on RS, p on WS) BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
STITCH EXPLANATION: | 6/6 RC (right cross of 6 sts over 6 sts) Slip next 6 sts to a cable needle and leave at the
back of your work, k 6 sts from your left needle, then k the 6 sts from cable needle.

| Cable Comfort Throw Reviewed by Kelly Ernst on 2009-06-16 |

I made this blanket in just over a week. It knits up so quickly and looks so good! However, the pattern makes it a little short so I ended up repeating the cable pattern 9 times instead of 7 like it originally calls for. I also used size 15 needles for a softer effect. Each panel ended up taking two skeins for a total of 10 skeins. I also chose to alternate color panels for a rugby stripe effect.
I'm probably going to end up making these for the rest of my life since everyone who saw it wants one :)
Great pattern for beginner cablers!
