This baby blanket uses a modern cable and lace pattern to create a big effect! The reverse side is different, but just as attractive as the front.

Please note: pattern requires two cable needles and includes both knitting and purling through the back loops.

Pattern includes both written-out instructions and charts.

Revised Nov. 2022:
Since the original yarn used for this pattern (Knit Picks Simply Cotton Worsted) has been discontinued, it has been re-knitted in an alternative yarn. The pattern has been fully revised, with sizes updated to reflect the slight change in gauge.

The revised version of the pattern is titled Kari Baby Blanket.v2.pdf.
