Randolph Blanket

Description

Cabled medallions, created by intertwined columns of ribbing, take center stage in this refined blanket. Smaller, feather-like cables provide abundant background texture while the professional i-cord edging ensures that the blanket edges lie flat. The blanket is worked flat in one piece in a worsted-weight yarn. The carriage blanket size is shown, and the pattern includes a larger lap throw size. The Rib pattern and Cable Panel are written out and charted.
