As requested by a crocheter, this seven-panel school colour-themed crochet cable blanket is easy. There is a 6-row repeat after you get established.
Speaking bluntly, I've never done a cable like this before using double crochet spacing between the cable work. It's usually single crochet. It means this will crochet much faster for growth.
This is the Braided School Colors Blanket by Marianne Forrestal.
