Until Forever Blanket

Description

Designed to work as beautifully for a cherished new baby as for the most elegant living space, I hope that the Until Forever blanket finds a forever home in your knitting repertoire. The blanket is worked flat in one piece. For a custom-sized blanket, add or subtract 18-stitch repeats of the Main Cable Panel and work until the blanket is your desired length. For all sizes, you may wish to (a) weigh your blanket after completing the bottom border and Lower Cable Panel; and (b) save a corresponding weight/yardage of yarn for the Upper Cable Panel and top border.
