Cabled Wheel Blanket Crochet Stitch Video Tutorials

Have you ever worked a bunch of post stitches in a crochet pattern and not been thrilled with the gap that the post stitch leaves on the back side of the work?

For quite a few years now, I've been working stitches together when I use post stitches to hide those gaps.  It just makes for a cleaner finished project and I like the solid effect that it gives.  
I know cable work can be confusing to some when you first start out crocheting.  A lot of times though, it just comes down to how well you can read and understand patterns.  The cables worked in this Cabled Wheel Blanket pattern are pretty basic yet stunning when draped across the bed or a chair.  

​To help you out, I've created a few quick videos that will show how I hide those gaps and the stitch placement of the post stitches.  I hope this will give you the confidence you want to work some amazing crochet magic!

Crochet pattern for the Cabled Wheels Throw 


This beautiful blanket is full of texture and eye catching stitches for you to crochet in your choice of colors. The center panel is worked first and the side panels are crocheted right to the center so there's not really any "piecing" together.  A special technique is used for the post stitches giving the back of the blanket a solid fabric instead of the holes that post stitches tend to leave. This crochet pattern is considered Intermediate due to the use of the post stitches though written directions are given for special stitches and I do have videos to help if needed.


Please know that I am always happy to help! If you run into a part that you're just not sure about, PLEASE contact me through your receipt here on Etsy so I can assist you.

    Hey there!  Thank you for joining my blog here at Crafting Friends Designs. Grab your hook, some yarn and get comfy as we crochet some fun, unique and beautiful projects together.  
    I'm Kate and crochet is my passion.  I've been crocheting for 30+ years and as you can see from the selection of designs on my site, blankets are my obsession.  I absolutely love creating something that will wrap my love around friends and family when they're in need of comfort. 
    Having 4 beautiful girls of my own has also inspired many infant, toddler and child size dresses.  They are my biggest cheerleaders and have enjoyed wearing the things I've made them.
