Continuing along with the squares that make up the Neopolitan blanket that I sent to the Texas State Fair, here are the cables!!!

The diamonds square is from Beautiful Knitting Patterns by Gisela Klopper p. 51




The next cable square is a complicated middle cable framed by two XO cables. The
two smaller cables came from The Harmony Guides 220 Aran Stitches and Patterns vol. 5 p. 34 and the main cable came from a variation of the cable on p. 69



The 3 giant cables are pulled from this pattern. The cables are 12 stitches wide total. The outer 2 twist to the right while the middle one twists left….sorry, no picture since I neglected to take one before I shipped it off.


The final cable pattern is from the Great American Aran Afghan book. I repeated Chart A from Barbara McIntire’s square (p. 45) twice. This one turned out slightly more narrow than I would have liked, but I was able to find a place for it since the Seaweed square turned out to be a little slender as well.
