Disney nuiMOs Cable-Knit Afghan for Two - Pattern

What is more snuggly than a cable-knit afghan? This pattern is made to hold two Disney nuiMOs under it to get cozy, but certainly works for one as well! While it was made with nuiMOs in mind, the pattern works well for any other plush that needs a 26x26cm (10x10in) afghan!

  1. Did you use the whole ball for the blanket or part? I have leftovers from different projects, didn't know if maybe could use those, if it didn't take the whole ball.

    1. It didn't take the whole skein, luckily! I am not sure how many yards was actually used, however.

    2. Thanks! Some of my leftovers are around 50 yards, so may experiment with those, or with some worsted, since I have a lot in stash.
