How to Crochet a Cable Blanket

Crochet cables are one of many fun ways to add texture and design to a crochet blanket. Cable designs range from very basic crochet cables that only move upward, to more intricate cable designs that move inward and outward as they move upward.

Many crocheters are intimidated by cable stitches at first, but after working a few rows, they soon discover that they’re easier than they thought!

I would classify this cabled stitch crochet pattern as an intermediate cable design.

The cable accent panel is crocheted back and forth in rows. You’ll use two different post stitches to create the raised cables on top of the single crochet stitch background.

Be patient as you work crochet cables. Sometimes it takes a couple rows before you’re able to clearly see cable movement.

After crocheting the cabled accent panel, you’ll join gradient yarn and crochet along the long edges of the panel. Once your blanket is the desired width, you’ll crochet a border on a blanket using single crochet stitches.

Adjusting the Size of Your Blanket

The cable crochet blanket pictured is lapghan size. The written crochet pattern includes instructions to make a crochet baby blanket, lapghan, and large throw, but if you are looking for a smaller or larger blanket, this pattern is pretty easy to adjust.

You can easily increase the length of your blanket by crocheting more rows in the cabled accent panel. You can increase the width of your blanket by working more rows in the gradient sections.

For help determining what size to make your cable stitch crochet blanket, check out my Standard Blanket Size Chart.

Yarn

For the Aelia Cable Crochet Blanket, I chose two different yarns. I wanted to use a gradient yarn, but knew that the definition of the crochet cables would get lost in the color changes of the yarn.

So, to have the best of both worlds, I chose Lion Brand Yarns Pound of Love for the cabled accent panel and Lion Brand Yarns Mandala Gradient for the rest of the crochet blanket.

Pound of Love is the perfect yarn for so many different crochet projects and the yardage in one ball is incredible at 1,020 yards, making it affordable too!

Mandala Gradient Yarn is a worsted weight / 4, acrylic nylon blend yarn and it’s currently available in 12 beautiful colors! I love that the yarn does all of the colorwork and there are very few ends to weave in!

How to Style a Cable Crochet Blanket

1. Living Room: Drape it over the back of your sofa or an armchair for a chic yet inviting look.

2. Bedroom: Layer it at the foot of your bed for added warmth and a luxurious aesthetic.

3. Reading Nook: Pair it with a comfy chair, a good book, and a cup of tea for the ultimate cozy corner.

4. Seasonal Decor: Use crochet blankets in warm, earthy tones for fall and winter or light pastels for spring and summer.

Using Mandala Gradient Yarn: I joined my first cake of yarn from the inside (the palest yellow) and worked outward towards the bright yellow. To keep the gradient effect going, I began my next cake from the outside (bright yellow) and worked towards the inside (palest yellow). Continue the gradient colorway by beginning the next cake with the same color that you ended the previous cake with.
