I genuinely want to start enjoying complete movies and tv shows on youtube, however it is too bad that is certainly never really going to happen. #VIDEOPOSTERID#, that is certainly why I am using “stream episodes (DOT) net” currently to be able to enjoy the tv episodes and movies and youtube for every thing else!
How to Knit : How to Knit a Cable Stitch
Your scarf sample cable is made of 6 stitches (twisting 3 over 3), not 4 stitches as in your demo. Also, you need to set up the cable by having 2 purl stitches before and after the cable (as in the sample scarf). If you do your cable as the video demonstrates, you won’t end up with a cable looking like the scarf. It needs the 2 purl set up stitches to make the cable “pop” and stand out from the other patterns of the scarf.
ahhh it looks so pretty but it’s so hard~!
Neat!! Where can i buy those wood cable needle? Thanks a lot.
Wonderful demonstration. Seeing it on video is much more helpful than written instructions, which tend to confuse me more than anything.
Thank you so much.
no offence ! you look like that mom in the series heroes xD
Thanks this video was very easy to understand! Some people just make it so complicated for no reason!
Great instruction, thank you so much! Is the pattern available for this scarf? It is lovely. Thanks!!!
awesome scarf..nice color too, thanks!!!!!
Nice and clear, thanks.
Love it! Thank you!!!
hah, yeah ive just been using an old crochet hook!
to make a wider cable do you just knit more put more stitches onto the cable needle?
really clear and helpful. thank you.
Yes, it is possible to do it with a normal needle
you can even use a pencil of roughly the same diameter as the knitting needle you are knitting with. 
unbend a paperclip to use as a cable needle or use a double pointed needle
can you please me how to keep in pattern when doing armholes,,neckband when doing cable stitch..my pattern tells me to cast off 3stitches for decrease and that is when it all goes wrong,.
I truly enjoy your videos. I learn best from the way you show it. You a true master of this art.
I was unable to understand how to do cables but this video made it super easy! Thank you very much for this great tutorial!
Very helpful, but I agree it would be great to see a few rows done this way so we can have a better idea.
Thanks
I wished I was there! I would feel like a kid
in a candy store or I was dreaming. I would
like to go to a store that sold nothing but yarn,
crochet and knitting supplies.
