Wrapped In Cables
The straight shape begins with ribbing and a simple garter stitch edging.
The cable involves the use of 2 cable needles, worked over 2 successive rows. The intermittent rows are worked in a stacking rib and slipped stitch pattern.
As the stitch lends itself to either a square or rectangle, it could easily be customized to become your personal favorite dimension.
I’m smitten with the versatility of this stitch.
