Looking for a way to practice your crochet cables? Try making up the Floral Vines Blanket Square. You can work up a bunch of these and stitch them together – or make one and add it to a blanket with different squares, like the Bouquet of Flowers CAL.

Have you ever made crochet cables before?

I just LOVE them. They are so elegant and. a beautiful texture. I have used them in many different patterns. Just take a look!

Pattern Notes

• US Terminology
• When a row begins with Ch 1, the ch does not count as a st.
• When the row begins with Ch 3, it does count as a st.
• The cables cheat sheet is for reference only, as it shows cabling worked flat vs in the round, and for a 6 stitch cable, this pattern is for a 4 stitch cable.
• The first twist in the cables is worked in Round.
• The increase in Round 8 occurs between by working 4th dc and 3rd fptr in the same stitch. See video tutorial.
• The corners are worked in row 9.
• There will be 8 total cables, each with 4 twists.
• When the pattern says “cable” work as follows: sk next 2 st, fptr in next 2 st, fptr around 1st sk st, fptr in the next st, then continue on working the next dc after the cable
• It is important to block the project to even out the square.
