    I have found the following useful when knitting cables: REAR of the work makes a RIGHT cross (R=Right) and Front of the work makes a leFt cross (F=leFt). Thanks for this cable look; it's lovely and rather unusual.

      Thank you for this tip. I have been racking my brain over which way the cable goes from front to back. This tip will be easy to remember.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm going to try this stitch to make a warm headband! Last month, hubby and I visited a wonderful yarn shop on the Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia, called The Opulent Alpaca. Although the yarn was a wee bit expensive, I bought one skein of a beautiful, variegated blue alpaca wool to make a headband, but hadn't decided on a pattern to use ....... until now! 💖

    Wow this is great, thank you for sharing. It looks like such an intricate pattern but you make it happen so easily. Such a good idea to take the stitches on to a holding pin instead of a cable needle. I have used the cable needle and was more like a camel with a golf stick.
    Thank you again and blessings from South Africa❤🙏

      I have just subscribed and was amazed to see how many lovely tutorials you have made. Thank you so much for your kind generosity, I shall be making good use of them and I love the way you cast on. I knit a cast on edge because I hated the long thread I got between the stitches. It ended up as a rather wiggly edge, not what I was aiming for!!!!! Your cast on looks so nice and even thank for that tip too.
      Something I learnt for creating a nice even edge and an easy edge to pick up for edging. I always add a few stitches at the edge of a pattern if it is a stand alone piece like a scarf. The last stitch is slipped off purlwise. The next row knit first stitch as normal, either purl or plain and this gives a very even edge that looks like a crochet chain an is perfect for picking up. I learnt this from a book called Patchwork Knitting, by Horst Schulz.❤love Greta

    If you were to make a blanket with this stitch, would you create several panels that could be stitched together?

    • @sowoolly
      @sowoolly  Год назад

      Depending on the size of the blanket. If it’s big, I’d do it with any stitch, because of the weight 😉

    Thank you so much for this video!!! My mom taught me how to knit about 20 years ago. I got so frustrated because back then I did not have the patience to just keep trying when I got it all wrong. My mom sadly passed away last year and I decided to take up her craft. She was a very skilled knitter! I can only dream to be as good as she was. Your video has kept me company all day today. I saw this amazing stitch 2 months ago and finally decided I would try and tackle it! I did get it down, but I just have one question. What size yarn and needles are you using? I’ve tried a couple different variations and I keep coming across a very tight knit on the repeats. It’s killing me how tight it is to knit those stitches once I transfer them back to the needle. Any tips would be VERY appreciated!!!

    • @sowoolly
      @sowoolly  Год назад

      Thank you so much! Please take a look at the written instructions. Normally, a larger needle than the suggested by the manufacturer of the yarn can help. The other thing is to practice and practice a lot! Happy knitting 🤗

    Love your tutorials. If you made this into a throw blanket, would you add border stitches or do you think it looks fine as is? If I did border stitches then I’m thinking it’s just multiples of 6 and whatever amount of border stitches I choose, correct? Thank you!

    • @sowoolly
      @sowoolly  Год назад +1

      Thank you Cheryl! I’d add an edge on each side of the piece, and depending on the width, it should be at least 1 inch 😉
