Like others have said, this video explained so much that i wasn't getting from other videos as most of them started with a large amount already done. My starting row was where i was having trouble and this fixed it for me!
Thank you for telling me how to work the wrong side, and starting from the beginning. Others don't do this. Very clear and detailed instructions. Great work.
Thank you so so much 🌹🌹🌹! Yours is the only teaching of cable knitting that I have successfully completed each step. I am so grateful as I have tried a couple of others that never worked. Heartfelt sincere thanks 🥰😘😘❤ ! You made my day as I have successfully completed the basic idea of cable knitting after so many days and hourssss...... of trying other cable knitting videosss...... that never worked , which left me with full of frustration 🤨🤨🤨 . Thank you 🎁🍫🍭. I will try about 3 rounds from this video later 😘😘😘 again . God bless you with good health and abundance of wealth 💰💰💰💰💰 .......
You are the absolute best. Clear explanations at a pace that allows people beginning different techniques to keep up with and understand. I particularly like the way you point out little problems we may encounter and how to fix them. Thank you.
Thankyou!!!! Best video. I just knitted my first cable :) So happy you actually started from the beginning - i had to filter though some many videos that started with an already great cable...
I agree with the other comments on here, I've watched other videos on here trying to learn different styles of knitting, and being a beginner it's hard to keep up with some of them cause they go so fast and you made it seem so easy to cable knit. I would listen to each step then pause the video and do them. I don't have a hook to hold my stitches so I used another ball of yarn to hold the needle with the stitches I took off and after knitting the two I would just put the other two stitches back on my needle I took them off of but wasn't sure I could do that but you answered my question when you did it and it makes it easier to do but I will be getting me a hook when I do make something with a cable knit in it, cause it is kinda hard doing it the way I'm doing right now but I'm just practicing right now but now know how to do the cabling thanks to you. You made it so simple to understand and learn, wonderful teacher, thank you once again!
Aw thanks very much, I'm glad the video was helpful! Well done for getting by without a hook, hopefully you'll be able to get one soon to make it easier :) Thank you for your comment.
Thankyou! I've watched quite a few cable tutorials and yours is by far the simplest, no fuss, easy to understand and clearly explained. Why people have to over complicate things is beyond me. They show you the cable row and then day do the next however many then start again. Did they mean do the next x amount the same as the one I've just done? Do I need to cable? Not cable? I completely understand that when you can cable it's obvious what they mean BUT we're here because we don't know and are trying to learn! Sorry for the rant, you are like a breath of fresh air and I really appreciate your help. Definitely a new subscriber, look forward to learning more with you. Blessings to you xXx
Thank you so very much for this cabling tutorial! Yours was the last on my videos to try and learn this. Your video should be the very first one the search brings up! Thank you again!
Thank-you :) I haven't got a tutorial on it myself, but you basically have to knit a swatch of the full cable pattern and measure the gauge as you normally would. The pattern you're following should give you information on gauge. This page is very handy if you need help: kelbournewoolens.com/tips-and-tricks/swatching-in-cable-pattern Thanks for watching!
Stockinette and reverse stockinette are where you alternate between knit stitch rows and purl stitch rows (when flat knitting, not knitting in the round) - but with stockinette, the knit rows are the right side rows (the front) and in reverse stockinette the purl rows are the right side rows instead :)
Thank you for showing how to do cable from front to back. I'm learning how to knit and I didn't understand cables until now. This is an easy &basic one that I will try, thanks to you🤗😁 p.s. new subbie here💃🏾

The one thing that would have made this terrific tutorial even better would have been to also post the knit patterns for each of the rows.
Noted :) Thank you!
Amazing job 🙏
Thank you!
Brilliant. You have tempted me to buy a cable needle and give it a go. No pain, no gain, right?!! :-)
Excellent! Happy cabling :D
Thank you for this very clear demonstration. How does one measure gauge in cable stitch?
Thank-you :) I haven't got a tutorial on it myself, but you basically have to knit a swatch of the full cable pattern and measure the gauge as you normally would. The pattern you're following should give you information on gauge. This page is very handy if you need help: kelbournewoolens.com/tips-and-tricks/swatching-in-cable-pattern Thanks for watching!
But I want my sweater to be knit on the background,how would I go about that?
Does stokinette and reverse stockinette mean plain and purl?
Stockinette and reverse stockinette are where you alternate between knit stitch rows and purl stitch rows (when flat knitting, not knitting in the round)
- but with stockinette, the knit rows are the right side rows (the front) and in reverse stockinette the purl rows are the right side rows instead :)
Great tutorial, thanks. However, I was filled with anxiety for dropped stitches with those incredibly short needles!!!
Ha! Yes normally they have a cable on but it was getting in the way :) Thanks for watching
Haha my 1st thought too!! 🤣
Thank you for showing how to do cable from front to back. I'm learning how to knit and I didn't understand cables until now. This is an easy &basic one that I will try, thanks to you🤗😁 p.s. new subbie here💃🏾
