Beginning Cables - Online Workshop
Cables are very popular as a knitting technique. Although they can look difficult and intimidating, in reality the basic concept behind this technique is very easy to learn. Once you know how to knit and purl, this could be your next step. So, give them a try and see for yourself how easy cables are.
In this class we will begin with very basic cables using 2, 4, 6 sts that lean right or left. You will learn how to use a cable needle, how to read instructions and charts for cables, how to count rows in cables, and much more.
You will get a free scarf pattern that you can try after this class.
Supplies: Worsted weight light-colored yarn that does not split easily. Needles: US 6-8, a cable needle.
