To create the traditional cable pattern, we’ll cross the cable strands before moving them apart again. By the end, you’ll be sketching out your own colourful charts.
Step 1
Let’s cross the cable strands on Row 6 (WS). Turn, using A, ch2, htr in 3 Asts, change to B, skip next 2 Bsts, BPdtr around next 2 Bsts, BPdtr around skipped 2 Bsts, change to A, htr in last 4 sts, turn. You’ll see that the two strands have crossed over.
