    How to knit the Horseshoe Cable stitch pattern

    June 27, 2023 /

    Today, I’m sharing how to knit the Horseshoe Cable stitch, one of the cable patterns I love! It’s a six-row repeat pattern, and the right cross and left cross will repeat every 5 rows, so we’ll have a lot of plain knit + purl rows (“resting rows”). In order to cross stitches, we’ll need a “cable needle”; a third needle of the same size, or a stitch holder. However, you can also use a Bobby pin or hairpin, if you don’t have any of the above (use whatever short and easy-to-handle pin/ needle/holder/husband that works for you). Finally, don’t forget to take a look at my Tips for Cable Knitting…

    How to knit Twisted Twin Cables (the easiest cable pattern!)

    March 19, 2023 /

    The Twisted Twin Cables knitting pattern is the easiest cable you’ll ever knit. Why? Because there is only one cross to be made in one direction: The right cross. Also as the right cross will make every eight rows, so we’ll have a lot of “rest” rows. And the rest rows are easy to do: We’ll knit the knits and purl the purls (on both sides of the work). In fact, the wrong face looks pretty similar to a classic Rib pattern. It is true that for many knitters the word “cables” is kind of scary…they’re the kind of pattern that your mother warned you about…mad, bad, and difficult to…

    Baby Eyelets Cables knitting stitch pattern (without cable needle)

    March 24, 2021 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit the Baby Eyelet Cables stitch pattern, without using a cable needle. An adorable stitch, perfect for knitting clothes and accessories for babes and babies, as well as women’s hats, sweaters or tops. Its eye-catching design is flattering and timeless! The Baby Eyelet Cables combines columns of knitting and purling, along with little lace cables. It’s a four-row repeat pattern, easy to knit and quick to memorize (pretty intuitive). The first row is the most important…it may appear complicated the first time you try, persevere as the second and third times the charm, it just gets easier 😉 The next 3 rows are…

    Unisex Scarf knitted in Reversible Rope stitch – Cable Lesson 2

    February 12, 2020 /

    In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to knit a unisex scarf in the Reversible Rope stitch, since Aran patterns are so lit this season, and this scarf is a great winter accessory! Although we have practiced one reversible cable stitch (The Fuchsia Flower stitch), normally, cable knitting patterns are not reversible… What a pity! I think that such beautiful work should be able to look great on both sides, especially in a scarf! This is why this stitch is special and almost unique, looks great on a scarf, blanket, and also, on an infinity cowl. In addition, today I’m giving you a pattern that can be knitted in two different…

    The Fuchsia Flower stitch: Cable stitch lesson 1

    February 4, 2020 /

    In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn a new knitting technique using this special pattern: The Fuchsia Flower stitch. Easy to knit, reversible (identical on both sides), it has a great texture to it, and a perfect stitch to knit the sleeves of a chunky cardigan! One of the advantages that I really enjoy of this stitch is that from the 10 rows that form the pattern, most of them include the same steps (the even rows are equal, and the odds rows are almost always equal). And the cable technique is required only in row 9… this makes this stitch easy to memorize, light and fun to knit. There is something…
