Hello, my treasure! Today, I have a fabulous, richly cabled, knit pattern to share with you. Is it a shawl or a blanket? I think it’s a little of both, so I call it a shlanket! Keep reading to learn all about it!
Tableland was designed by Janica York Carter. When asked about this pattern, Janica said, “The colors in the Rusted Hues kit are reminiscent of the gorgeous, stratified rocks that comprise much of the tableland in the Southwestern United States. I first saw them as a young teenager on a family road trip from Alabama to California. We all marveled at the changing landscapes as we traveled, so different from the low, green hills around our home.”
“My Scottish granny was particularly amazed at the vast diversity of all the states we visited. She was an avid knitter who enjoyed projects with cables, so I incorporated an all-over cable pattern into this blanket in her memory. It looks intricate, but each of the three types of cable stitches cover just four stitches at a time, making it easy to break down the steps along the way. A chart of the cable pattern is included, along with full written instructions.”
This Intermediate level pattern is ideal for knitters who are comfortable with knit and purl stitches, optional pattern reading, and are ready to learn basic cables.
Tableland was made with our beautifully shimmering and soft Luster Sport yarn, which has a squish factor that is amazing! It’s made from 50% Superwash Merino Wool and 50% Lyocell, a plant fiber that provides the glow of silk without the price. Ideal for virtually any type of garment or accessory, from head to toe, as well as blankets, baby items, and home decor with 395 yds/361 m per skein.
The sample shown here was made with our luscious Rusted Hues Luster Sport Kit and used six skeins [395 yds/361 m each skein (2,370 yds/2,166 m per kit). The colors are worked from darkest to lightest, and almost all of the yarn in the kit was used. If you are concerned about running out of yarn, consider going down a needle size or two.
We made a video tutorial showing how to work the cables featured in this pattern. Take a look!
The pattern contains written and charted instructions.
