Free Knitting Pattern – Cable Baby Blanket

October 27, 2023 by Shellie Wilson

A handmade blanket is a thoughtful and heartfelt gift that can be cherished for years to come. A cable baby blanket is a beautiful and timeless design that can be passed down through generations. It’s a perfect way to welcome a new baby into the world and to express your love and warmth to the new family.

One of the great things about handmade blankets is that they are unique and personal. Each one is made with care and attention to detail, and the finished product is a reflection of the love and dedication that went into its creation. The cable pattern adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the blanket.

A baby blanket can also be a keepsake, something that the child can treasure as they grow older. As the child grows, the blanket can be used for snuggling, as a security blanket, or even as a decorative throw in their room. The memories associated with the blanket can be passed down to future generations, making it a special family heirloom.

This particular pattern uses Bernat Baby’s Breath yarn, a soft and lightweight yarn that’s perfect for a baby blanket. The yarn is also machine washable and dryable, which makes it easy to care for. The pattern is free to download on the Mary Maxim website. It’s a great way to create a special and thoughtful gift for a new parent or to add a touch of warmth to a baby’s room.

Knitting Pattern Review: Sabai Top by PaulaStrickt

Trending now — and for good reason!

Alright fellow knitters, if you’ve been scrolling through Instagram or Pinterest lately, you’ve probably spotted the Sabai Top popping up everywhere. And let me tell you — the hype is totally justified. This lightweight, drapey top by PaulaStrickt has quickly become a must-knit, and it’s easy to see why.

The Sabai Top has that magical mix of style and simplicity. With its elegant A-line shape, soft rolled neckline, and relaxed fit, it flatters every body and suits just about every wardrobe. It’s knit top-down in the round, which means no seams (yes please!), and it flows beautifully thanks to its clever shaping.

It’s ideal for warmer weather and perfect for layering. I’ve seen it styled casually over jeans or thrown over a sundress, and honestly? It looks stunning every single time. That easy, wearable style is what’s made this one take off in the knitting world right now.

PaulaStrickt’s instructions are beautifully laid out, with both English and German versions included. It’s written with clarity and care, and includes helpful photos throughout. I’d say it’s best for confident beginners and up — if you’re comfortable knitting in the round and shaping, you’ll be right at home.

The sizing is generous and inclusive, and it’s so adaptable with different fibres. Linen, cotton, bamboo blends — they all shine in this pattern. I’ve cast on with a blush cotton-linen from my stash, and it’s knitting up like a dream.

This is one of those patterns you just know you’ll make more than once. The fit, the drape, the ease… it’s everything I want in a handmade top. No wonder it’s trending — it’s the kind of timeless knit that never really goes out of style.
