This helped me TREMENDOUSLY!!! I’m the person that needs to understand how a stitch works and why the steps are the way that they are instead of just learning the steps and repeating them over and over. Your tutorials are exceptional for that reason. I enjoyed that it’s not just “monkey see monkey do“ and you’re actually teaching us why. The “why” is important every time you learn a new skill so thank you!
Thanks for video. My only complaint would be this is the 3rd video listed as "Beginners guide" and you guys shows us cables on already completed cable work, why not start from beginning since we are beginners... is there a set up row... I dont know, nobody shows it. LOL Oh well, now you know why we run for the hills! OK after finishing the video I understand a little more, thanks again.
Totally agree, I have this same issue with so many different knitting things. I feel like I understand but then I go to practice it on my own and realize I have no clue how to work up to it’
Am I the only one that finds knitting easier than crocheting? When I crochet I never know where the stitches are and my tension is uneven which makes the project uneven :/
I find knitting so much easier as well. When I try to learn how to crochet something, my anger rises whenever I don’t get it right. Edit: I started to get the hang of crochet and now I find it so much easier and faster than I thought it would
What a wonderfully detailed tutorial, thank you! I love that you explained not only how to work cables but also how to read charts and troubleshoot mistakes, super helpful, thank you!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge of cables. I love doing cables. I think they are so pretty on any project. I use to panic when I would mess up a stitch and have to take out or try to fix. After watching your video and seeing how calm you were when you had to fix, it has helped me to stay calm and just take my time to fix. And that is with straight knitting as well.
Wow! I had figured this all out, but I haven't done many cable projects and the info was scattered in bits and pieces in my memory. You did an outstanding and very clear job if bringing all the essential info together -- such a concise presentation! Thank you!
I usually crochet, so knitting isn't my main yarn craft, but I do try to learn various knitting stitches from time to time to challenge my brain. In all the knitting tutorials I've seen over the years, you were the only one that showed the "tink." I'm used to frogging my work if I mess up a crochet pattern, but that's much trickier with knitting. I cannot thank you enough.
Just a beginner; only been knitting for a month. Have seen some cable baby knitting and loved it. Your very detailed and clear instructions helped me make sense of what seemed a jumble of a abbreviations. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you so much. I had not knitted cables for years, like more than 25 years, and to find your video available was heaven sent. You are very thoughtful in your instructions and I appreciate you for refreshing my mind that "I Can Do It." Thanks again. Have a Blessed Holiday. 👍
This was SO helpful! I'm so glad I found this. I dabbled around with cables - making washcloths and then felt ready for fingerless mitts. I got stuck and couldn't see what I'd done, so watching this was extremely helpful! Thank you!
I have this book and I’m only 3 weeks in my knitting journey and this book helped me a lot but I was getting confused with cross stitch instructions. Thank you so much for explaining those in your video.
I have been crocheting for 32 years. Self taught. Always wanted to learn knitting, but adjusting to two needles and fixing mistakes was so daunting. Also, have always wanted to learn how to knit cables since crocheting cables is a favorite stitch. I thought it would be easy since I know how to crochet. Wrong. I started and stopped multiple times because of this. Am determined this go around. Thank you so much! Your clip helped out lots on understanding basics of cables. Also, helped me understand knitting flat versus on the round. I have made so many mistakes but am loving this journey. Thank you again.
this is a great tutorial for a bit more of an experienced beginner!!! i think this was great for showing it in practice (the action of cabling), describing what the pattern abbreviations mean, and the diagrams!! thank you for demystifying this for me!
Thank you so much for this THOROUGH tutorial on cables! I have not attempted a cable yet, because I’m intimidated, being that I’m still a beginner knitter. I’ve crocheted for years, and have made up patterns as I go along (usually simple stuff like sweaters for my dog lol). My husband has been wanting me to make him a new beanie, with a cable in it, since I’ve been practicing with my swatches. I found your tutorial very insightful, and very helpful, as I feel like some things need to be explained to me like a child, so I needed a more in-depth tutorial like this one. I couldn’t help but laugh when you suggested working on a few swatches first before taking on a project, and your doubling down by saying not to attempt to make your own pattern if you are new to cables. Because I was already having him find me examples of hats he liked, to attempt copying lol! But I’m definitely gonna take your advice and look for a pattern, before attempting my own pattern. Thanks again for such an awesome tutorial, honey!
@@missmarie_8790 yes, but your comment said you were more of a crocheter and that you were asked for a hat with a cable, i said that because you could technically make a crochet hat with a cable
@@RosenrotRtLiebchen87 I misread your comment, my bad. Yeah, I just became aware of crocheting cables as well! I figure it’s the same idea, where you stitch the stitches out of order to make the twist or cable, but I’m new to both 😅 I made my husband’s beanie though! It came out really good for my first cable project. I found a very simple and easy to follow pattern, I’ve come to find that I like working cable patterns from charts more than written instructions. My next project is going to be mittens to increase my knitting skills! But I’m also working on a crochet project on the side, a granny square hooded trench coat style sweater.
@@RosenrotRtLiebchen87 just to clarify, I am more knowledgeable in crochet, as I’ve been crocheting since I was like 7 or 8, but I want to become just as good with knitting. I taught myself how to knit during COVID. But don’t really have any friends/family who can help me out, so for the time being I’m using tutorials and books I’ve bought to learn. But I do want to join a knitting class or something to learn things I don’t know that I can’t learn or wouldn’t know to learn, just from self teaching alone. If you get what I mean.
Thank you so much!!! You are an excellent teacher! I have put off attempting anything with cables…..including even learning because I was so intimidated. Your explanation is so clear & thorough and I am going to give it a shot!
I listened to you today, 3x in a row. Each time I got different questions answered. Thank you for a great informational tutorial! I am working out of a vintage book and all it says is ...p2, work a cable over next 6 stitches, p2... So thank you again!
Thank you. I’ve been hesitant to knit anything with cables and of course someone picked a pattern they want me to knit with cables. I’m gonna try it. Thanks and wish me luck. I’m definitely bookmarking your video.
I ordered the book right away. Can't wait for it to arrive. I've also ordered the cable needle that you use. the come in 3 sizes. I am trying my first cable swatch and I think I'm finally going to understand it thanks to your video.
Thank you so much for this help. You are a very patient and good teacher. As a numerous year knitter, have finally decided to tackle the cable stitch and have been doing 'ok'. However the idea of and need to remove those stitches causes a fair amount of stress for me. But your demonstration just caused and ah hah moment for me, now I won't dread it so much!! Thank You again
I have been watching your videos for a long time. Thank you for this Cable video. I am excited about trying to make a knit cable project. I have watched a few other videos that left me confused. I always understand what you are saying about the subject in the video video. Thank you so much and God bless you for all that you do for us beginners. Yes I have been a subscriber for a long time too.
I'm so incredibly happy to hear this, Lee! I appreciate your support through the years and giving me such motivating feedback like this. Have fun with your new cable project!
Thankyou so much for getting rid of my worries about cables. I've wanted to try for so long but it's always looked so difficult. I actually understand how and why the cable works now, thankyou again..you're a star!💖
I am just getting into knitting. I have learned a few new stitches and want to learn the cable stitch as well... I admit I am both excited but also a little scared. I have this video saved to my favorites and also your web site. Thank you for explaining this in such detail. It really makes it much easier.
Wow your ideas save time and makes it so easy to do. I usually cringe when I see cables, I tried a few and it turned out half hazard. This I think I could do, thank you!
I am a little nervous, I adapted someone else’s unfinished project . Thank you for your video you gave great advice on troubleshooting, and practice making swatches❤
This was such a great tutorial be ause I too run for the hills when I see cables.tha ☺ Thank you for breaking it down for begginers. I'll be using all your tips and have ordered the book you recommended.
This tutorial was extremely helpful. I've been knitting a long time, but never tried cables. Now I can't wait to get started on my first try.. I have a bigger project in mind, but not without some trial swatches! Thanks for your help! Victoria
I am curious. The cables that you showed same to Laine so I did one side or the other my recollection years ago of making an error and I’ll sweater was that the cables enter twine so that it doesn’t lean to One Direction or the other so it goes up goes in goes around and I’m not quite sure how to do that. But it looks different than when it leans to one side
What do you need to do to have the cables look like a snake from the left and the right so that it doesn’t lean towards one direction it goes up under up under up under and so the underside then goes up in the air up goes under rather than always staying up
I'm quite eager to try knitting cables, but information on if there's a serup row or just starting from earlier on probably would have been a good addition here
WHEN I STARTED KNITTING 30 YEARS AGO, I WAS IN UK. BOUGHT A BOOK CALLED HARMONY GUIDES 440 KNITTING STITCHES, WANTED TO TRY CABLE STITCHES BUT WHEN I READ SOMETHIN CALLED ( CABLE NEEDLE) I WAS TERRIFIED 😱..AND NEVER TRIED KNITTING CABLES, UNTILL A WEEK AGO, (IN 65 😌), I REALISED CABLING WAS NOT SO DIFFICULT, AND HOW THAT TINY NEEDLE SCARED ME ALL THOSE YEARS 😔..AM STILL KEEPING LOTS OF BOOKS ON KNITTING & CROCHETING BOUGHT FROM UK. THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEO. LOVE FROM TURKEY 🌹❤🥰.
That was a great video really appreciate it thank you hey I’ve got one tip for you try to work your stitches on the tips of your needles and you’ll avoid stretching stitches out that’s just something I’ve learned along the way all right thank you so much this is really really helpful
Ok so i was hoping as it is a beginners guide it would be right from the baby steps stage but again it's from middle. Please can u show from. The casting on stage.. Thanks
I've done crochet cabling with ease, but I have barely knit and I want to make the cardigan from Taylor Swift's music video and it's all cabled 🙈 but your video has helped me see that it's a similar concept, just with a "placeholder" while you work on the other part of the cable (I don't know how else to explain it)
Thank you so much for your great tutorial. I personally love cables and I like to use them any time posible. I’m new knitting and I’m trying to learn as much as I can. It is so beautiful and it allows you to create anything you can imagine. When possible can you explain gauge and how to figure it out on any given instructions. Not sure if the book you recommended has any explanation about it. Thank you so much for your teachings and help for beginners.
You have a talent for explaining things! I’m the kind of sporadic knitter that dives into projects and forgets that life will be easier if I practice making swatches. Thank you for the reminder!
I love cables but my only problem is that my cable stitches look stretched out or elongated. As much as I tighten my tension they sometimes look messy. Any tips will be helpful.
Cables are easy to do, I"m left handed so knit properly seeing I have 2 needles but I crochet backwards as I only have 1 hook and can"t manipulate it in my right hand. Taught myself to crochet with help of book that shows both left and right hand. I much prefer crochet so far although many patterns I won't attempt yet.
My first successful cable project was a hat with braided cables, but my first attempt was a pattern kit I bought when I was 10 from Borders Books (does anybody remember Borders?). It was meant for adults who already knew what they were doing, wasn't for beginners at all. I crashed and burned and didn't try cables again for years. Wish I'd had a video like this when I was 10.
Well, for regular non-circular version, even rows on the knitting chart is pearls and not knits and pearls are read as knits on even rows. Only the odd rows are straight knits and pearls as-is off the chart. Good advice on the stitch book and knitting a sample first than diving right into a project. I made some similar mistakes before.
Thanks for your clear and slow explenation on this tutorial. I wonder if you could help me with a patern for a round neck sweater with superiour chunky wool. I struggle with my neck its everytime to narrow. I start with 79 sts. Please i cant found a patern. Only for over sizing sweaters. She dont want an over size sweater. I will appreciate it. Thanks
I appreciate your videos so so so sooo much…and yes, I’ve said this before but I can’t help but reiterate. 😬 I very much wish background music was not added while you are talking. Intro and wrap up…sure…but not while teaching. 😭 ♥️
Beautiful cable, I made 3 cable scarfs last year and this year I can't follow the pattern??? I don't know what's happening to me, PLEASE How many stitches did you cast on? How did you start? Show from the Beginning, as we are BEGINNERS!!!!!
This is a great video for beginners 👍 thank you for a detailed tutorial. However, I am confused with the chart. Shouldn't the alternate rows in the graphic pattern be all purl rows? The way the pattern is drawn seems to imply that the cable is worked in garter stitch alone which is not the desired effect?
This helped me TREMENDOUSLY!!! I’m the person that needs to understand how a stitch works and why the steps are the way that they are instead of just learning the steps and repeating them over and over. Your tutorials are exceptional for that reason. I enjoyed that it’s not just “monkey see monkey do“ and you’re actually teaching us why. The “why” is important every time you learn a new skill so thank you!
Does your mama stop at stop signs?
I learn the same way as you!!
Thanks for video. My only complaint would be this is the 3rd video listed as "Beginners guide" and you guys shows us cables on already completed cable work, why not start from beginning since we are beginners... is there a set up row...

Thank you
I agree. I am finding the same problem
Yeah I was literally thinking the same thing
Agree
Totally agree, I have this same issue with so many different knitting things. I feel like I understand but then I go to practice it on my own and realize I have no clue how to work up to it’
Am I the only one that finds knitting easier than crocheting? When I crochet I never know where the stitches are and my tension is uneven which makes the project uneven :/
No I think knitting is easier
Absolutely not crocheting scares me its a harder concept to me the knitting
How i start knitting pleaseeee
I find knitting so much easier as well. When I try to learn how to crochet something, my anger rises whenever I don’t get it right.
Edit: I started to get the hang of crochet and now I find it so much easier and faster than I thought it would
I prefer knitting

A lot of my message got twisted up in the spelling. I made an error in a ARYAN I’a
I made an Aryan isle Sweater with cables. The cables were even not leaning to one side or the other. How does one do that?
What do you need to do to have the cables look like a snake from the left and the right so that it doesn’t lean towards one direction it goes up under up under up under and so the underside then goes up in the air up goes under rather than always staying up

I'm quite eager to try knitting cables, but information on if there's a serup row or just starting from earlier on probably would have been a good addition here
Thank you very much! I'm a beginner and I was afraid of doing cables. They looked so complicated... but they're actually fun to make! :)
This was the easiest way I have been shown cables I now feel like I can do this thank you x
Thanks so much for all your helpful tips
You are an amazing coach. Thank you
Thanks for your video. It makes me less intimidated with the idea of cables.
WHEN I STARTED KNITTING 30 YEARS AGO, I WAS IN UK. BOUGHT A BOOK CALLED HARMONY GUIDES 440 KNITTING STITCHES, WANTED TO TRY CABLE STITCHES BUT WHEN I READ SOMETHIN CALLED ( CABLE NEEDLE) I WAS TERRIFIED 😱..AND NEVER TRIED KNITTING CABLES, UNTILL A WEEK AGO, (IN 65 😌), I REALISED CABLING WAS NOT SO DIFFICULT, AND HOW THAT TINY NEEDLE SCARED ME ALL THOSE YEARS 😔..AM STILL KEEPING LOTS OF BOOKS ON KNITTING & CROCHETING BOUGHT FROM UK. THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEO. LOVE FROM TURKEY 🌹❤🥰.
How do I find the pattern for this practice project. Yellow is a beautiful color choice.
Your video was very helpful and now I am ready to give it a try.
That was a great video really appreciate it thank you hey I’ve got one tip for you try to work your stitches on the tips of your needles and you’ll avoid stretching stitches out that’s just something I’ve learned along the way all right thank you so much this is really really helpful
Ok so i was hoping as it is a beginners guide it would be right from the baby steps stage but again it's from middle. Please can u show from. The casting on stage.. Thanks
There are many videos on casting on and off, I recommend ‘sheep and stitch’, I learnt how to knit from them!!
I love knitting better than crochet. The patterns are endless if you have acquired the skills. It's therapeutic too.
I love the beautiful colour.
Great video , thank you!
the best video that's all i can say i saw a lot of videos and i didn't understand tha part when u flliped it thank uuuuuuuuu
Glad it helped!
I've done crochet cabling with ease, but I have barely knit and I want to make the cardigan from Taylor Swift's music video and it's all cabled 🙈 but your video has helped me see that it's a similar concept, just with a "placeholder" while you work on the other part of the cable (I don't know how else to explain it)
Looking forward to practicing knitting cables, and more great patterns to try.
Cables to me are very scary, but I will practice them!
Excellent tutorial and info. Thank you!
0:00 - 0:13 out of context that would sound hilarious
Lovely tutorial thank you
Brilliant video
I also have 400 knitting stitches! I reference it often😊
Good video! Thanks!
Cables always seemed intimidating to me but this makes it look so easy

Thanks for your clear and slow explenation on this tutorial. I wonder if you could help me with a patern for a round neck sweater with superiour chunky wool. I struggle with my neck its everytime to narrow. I start with 79 sts. Please i cant found a patern. Only for over sizing sweaters. She dont want an over size sweater. I will appreciate it. Thanks
I appreciate your videos so so so sooo much…and yes, I’ve said this before but I can’t help but reiterate. 😬
I very much wish background music was not added while you are talking.
Intro and wrap up…sure…but not while teaching. 😭
♥️
Thank you for the video it is very helpful.
Beautiful cable, I made 3 cable scarfs last year and this year I can't follow the pattern??? I don't know what's happening to me, PLEASE How many stitches did you cast on? How did you start? Show from the Beginning, as we are BEGINNERS!!!!!
This is a great video for beginners 👍 thank you for a detailed tutorial.
However, I am confused with the chart. Shouldn't the alternate rows in the graphic pattern be all purl rows? The way the pattern is drawn seems to imply that the cable is worked in garter stitch alone which is not the desired effect?
Thanks!
Thank you so much Susan! 💙
Nice!
