Giveaway-Cable Left, Cable Right: 94 Knitted Cables
Leave a comment in today’s post by August 18, 2016 and you are in the running for this great collection of cable knitting patterns.
This is a great little book packed full of everything from the basics of cabling to a great chapter on working with multiple colors of yarn and cable stitches. It is spiral bound so it lays flat and makes reading the charts easy. Its small size makes it perfect for on the go knitting. Along with all the classic cable styles there are a few patterns that are very modern like a multidirectional squiggle that looks really fun and a disc cable that looks like vintage mod wallpaper.
Open to U.S. residents only please.
“Knitted cables, with their three-dimensional twists and turns, are a common element in lots of patterns — but most patterns don’t include directions for executing them. Cable Left, Cable Right, by expert knitter Judith Durant, eliminates the mystery with detailed, in-depth instructions for creating 94 different styles of cable, from perfectly plain to fantastically fancy. Close-up photos and clear instructions teach you the techniques you need, including design options like braids, diamonds, and pretzels so you can make your cables truly one-of-a-kind. This book is the perfect companion to any knitting pattern featuring cables, giving you the information and skills to make polished, beautiful, and unique cables for any project.”

August 17, 2016 at 10:38 pmUntil this year I hated cables – but I think I just needed to practice more to get comfortable with them. Now I want them in all my projects!
