CLASSIC CABLES
CABLE AND REV
ST ST PATTERN
Knitted cabling is really easy
to work! Begin by slipping a
set number of stitches onto
a separate cable needle.
These stitches are held
either in front of your stitches
or behind them, depending
which way you want the
twist to go. Knit a number
of stitches from your left
needle, then knit the stitches
from the cable needle to
complete the efect.
