A luxurious wealth of cables makes for the very best kind of wrap or blanket when the cold winds blow. This rectangular wrap, lap/baby blanket, or throw is the perfect cuddly weight for warming up from top to toe on those snowy winter days. Composed of simple cable crosses throughout and easily resized, it’s deceptively simple to work and the repetitive pattern moves along quickly. It even keeps you warm while you knit it!
