Materials Needed

• Yarn: Super bulky weight yarn in golden yellow
• Knitting Needles: US size 15 (10mm) knitting needles
• Gauge: 8 stitches and 10 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cast On: Begin by casting on 60 stitches using your US size 15 knitting needles. Make sure your cast-on is loose enough to allow for stretch.
2. Row 1 (Right Side): Knit all stitches across the row. This establishes the foundation for your blanket.
3. Row 2 (Wrong Side): Purl all stitches across the row. This will create a nice texture for the back of your blanket.
4. Row 3: This is where the magic happens!
   • *Knit 4 stitches.
   • Take the next 4 stitches and place them onto a cable needle, holding it in front of your work.
   • Knit the next 4 stitches from your left needle.
   • Now, knit the 4 stitches from the cable needle.
   • Repeat from * to the end of the row.
5. Row 4: Purl all stitches across the row. This will help to define the cable pattern and add texture.
6. Repeat: Continue repeating rows 1-4 until your blanket reaches your desired length. Make sure to check your gauge periodically to ensure consistency.
7. Bind Off: Once you have reached the desired length, bind off all stitches. Make sure to bind off loosely to maintain the elasticity of the edge.
8. Finishing Touches: Weave in any loose ends using a tapestry needle. This will give your blanket a clean and polished look.

Congratulations! You’ve just completed your very own Golden Cable Knit Blanket. Enjoy the warmth and comfort it brings to your home!
