Introduction to Cables: Marla Morris will introduce us to cable knitting. This introduction to cables is designed for fairly new knitters who can knit and purl and are ready to increase their skills. She will present a variety of cable stitches, their uses, cable needles, and descriptions. We will look at a chart and a written pattern for the same sample, learn how cable stitches appear on the chart, how they are used in patterns, then how to make them—with and without a cable needle. A Powerpoint presentation and pattern are part of this class, originally designed for a knitting guild format of one hour.

 

The free pattern (on Ravelry) is Hugs & Kisses Wristers by Marla Morris
