The Berroco Design Team has crafted twelve spectacular 16 x 16" blocks, each showcasing a unique cable arrangement that's perfect for knitters eager to dive in and master these mesmerizing stitches. Released on the 2nd Tuesday of each month, each block takes you on an exciting journey through the wonderful world of cables—from classic twists to interesting rope patterns and everything in between. Work your way through the collection at your own pace, discovering new techniques and building confidence with each design. *Construction Notes* The blanket is made up of 12 different cable blocks, each made individually and then sewn together. The blocks are knit with a garter stitch selvedge edge to facilitate seaming. Each block's pattern stitch is both written and charted for your preference. Cast on all blocks using the long-tail method; the first row begins on a WS row. See monthly video tutorials for MKAL techniques here on [Berroco's YouTube Channel][1].
