  1. Can someone point out where I can get the actual typed out complete pattern? Aran Cable Knitting Stitch. There are two different cable patterns in the photograph, maybe three. I would love to get the complete pattern

    1. Kim,

      Did you ever figure out this chart? If not, let me know and I can help you. It is really easy once you understand the symbols. It is basically a combination of 1/1LC, 2/2 LC, 2/2 RC, 2/1 RPC, and 2/1 LPC on the odd number rows and the even rows are knit the knits and purl the purls.

  2. Based on my book, “400 Knitting Stitches” published by Potter Craft, written would be:
    forward slashes, /, are cable back,
    // is slip 2 on cable needle, hold in back, k2, k2 on cable needle
    backward slashes, \, are cable front,
    \ is slip 1 on cable needle, hold in front, k1, k1 stitch on cable needle
    \\ is slip 2 on cable needle, hold in front, k2, k2 on cable needle
    single backward slash \ is
    blank boxes are knit on RS, purl on WS, or knit all in the round

  3. Sorry, I was wrong about the blank boxes. The clear boxes are knit on the RS. The shadded boxes are purl on the RS.

  4. I do okay until stitch 23 on row 5. Not sure what it means, as it’s not a “single stitch cable”. it’s repeated along the row, and can’t figure out how to move forward on it
