Easy as Pie Cable Blanket
What is Being Made
The Easy as Pie Cable Blanket is a soft and warm crocheted throw designed for crafters of all experience levels who want to explore cable techniques. This finished blanket measures 133 cm x 95 cm (52.4" x 37.4"), making it an ideal size for draping over furniture or using as a cozy wrap. The design demonstrates that cable work, often perceived as complex, is actually quite approachable and enjoyable to create.
Techniques Used
This project introduces crocheters to cable stitching, a decorative technique that creates raised, twisted patterns reminiscent of knitted cables. The pattern is specifically designed to make cable work accessible to intermediate-level crocheters who may be attempting this technique for the first time. The blanket's construction emphasizes that cables are simpler to execute than many crafters assume, making this an excellent learning project for expanding your crochet skillset.
Stitches Used
The primary stitch used throughout this blanket is double crochet (dc), which forms the foundation of the fabric. Cable stitches are incorporated into this double crochet base to create the distinctive textured pattern. The combination of these stitches produces a fabric with both visual interest and dimensional appeal.
Materials
This project requires a 3 mm crochet hook and 4-ply yarn in a woolly weight. The gauge for this pattern is 22 stitches and 12 rows in double crochet, measuring 10 x 10 cm (4" x 4") before blocking when worked with the recommended 3 mm hook and yarn. The designer notes that gauge is not crucial for this particular project, offering flexibility for crafters working with similar yarn weights and hook sizes.
