I haven't tried this horseshoe cable stitch yet and this blanket pattern makes me want to give it a try! It looks like it would be very comfy using the Bernat Blanket yarn (super bulky weight). That yarn comes in a lot of shades so you could make it as a gift for someone's living room or bedroom.

What stunning pattern, I just love the cable stitch, it always looks so well! I have yet to make a blanket, I alway thought they looked harder than they might be, but I need something warm and heavy to pop over myself when I'm lying on the couch and I think this blanket might be it, has anyone tried it? How long do blankets normally take to knit?

All of the confusion appears to be on the part of the knitters, who may not be ready for an intermediate pattern, no matter how well written it is. It is not the responsibility of anyone on this website to make corrections or changes to the pattern, that would be copyright infringement, only the designer can make corrections/changes, so any issues with the pattern should be directed to Bernat. Hope this helps someone, happy knitting.

How does a knitter get the corrected Row by Row pattern and graph of this Horseshoe Cable Afghan? I have been trying to get this pattern with no luck or response so far. Thanks.

I have studying this pattern. If you start with two less stitches I think it will work out. You are logically doing two increases in each horseshoe pattern. I just adjusted the pattern as I went. I don't believe the increase row will work out perfectly. It should be 36 not 26. I did this on paper but easier to count out ribs and increase inside each horseshoe by doing it K2-M1-K8- M1-K2. Each horseshoe is 12 stitches. I hope this helps. It is very frustrating and confusing. I think adding the increases as you go is the best way to do it.

I am very frustrated with this pattern. It is difficult to interpret the instructions once you get to the Next row (WS). I have graphed the pattern to no avail. Help someone?

I wrote out the pattern to get it. The cable pattern is different for the 12 rows. As for the pattern in between the cable pattern or the ribbing pattern, once in place you just repeat the pattern as you see it. This is easy. The edge is always K2 on each side for any row.
