I love it!! You're instructions were amazing and made what was going to be a complicated endeavor (in my mind) so simple. I made a father/son sweater set (my first knitting project) 46 years ago, and hadn't done a project such as that for many, many years. It had seeded stitch, honeycomb cable, cable, tree of life stitches and they came out beautiful! I never did a celtic stitch (C4F, C4B, etc) and I broke into a cold sweat. You explained it BEAUTIFULLY!
Literally started knitting yesterday and this video has me SO EXCITED about what I'll eventually be able to do! This is definitely going on my to-do list. And thank you SO MUCH for the printable patterns on your website!
"color code system"????? THE - MOST - COMPLETE & ACCURATE job I ve ever seen! First time subscribing in my life cause I really believe I gotta support someone's spiritual work/effort! You made that cable-maze look like a piece of cake! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!PS: Amazing scissor!
Wow! I am so pleased that I found this tutorial. What a stunning design and look. Beautiful work. I will knit this. You make it look doable. Great colour 🧶.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I am just over the moon! Thank you for your organizational skills and color coding of the different cable stitches, I don't think I would have been able to follow along so easily with the written pattern. This is the second pattern of yours that I have made, the first was the Lace Hearts and I have been thrilled with the finished product. I look forward to wandering through your other videos and website. Thank you.
St Patric was Romano British (ish) He was captured by ‘Irish’ pirates and held captive in Ireland. This was just about the time the Anglo Saxons were invading Britain.This pattern was popular on Saxon and British crosses
i love your videos. thank you. you bring a lot of happiness into knitting. those days need a little hope and happiness. bless you. greetings from berlin
Hi, so I’m running into a bit of a problem trying to follow your pattern. I am actually following the “Sample Size” dimensions you gave on the instructions and when I get to row 3, that’s when I run into problems. Obviously, you have to double the cable pattern, but if I double the pattern entirely for row 3 I end up with too many stitches (more than 56 sts) or less than my target stitch number. I will knit backwards to row 2 and try to start over, but end up with the same issue. I have made certain to count my stitches to be sure I have the same number I started with upon CO. The instructions are much easier for a smaller pattern, but not for what I am trying to make which is a scarf about 10” in width or so using 4 weight yarn and size US 9 (5.5cm) needles. I still Knit and Purl the edges like you did in your sample and I didn’t change anything else. Could you maybe also provide instructions where you make the sample size as opposed to the smaller instructions provided? Also, in the cable pattern it will read something like “(CL4F, CR4B) and it gives you the number of times to repeat, however, when you go to repeat you are putting two Pearl stitches next to one another. Are you suppose to do that? Or Knit one in between them before continuing the cable pattern as normal. I hope that all makes sense. If not I can try to reexplain. I know pictures would help but TH-cam doesn’t allow us to do that. 😕
Thank you so much for sharing this incredibly beautiful pattern. I'm using it to teach myself how to cable knit, as it's my first every cable pattern, and your meticulousness with the colored charts on the pattern page are phenomenal! Also, it seems like (though, being new, I could be totally mistaken) there's a mistake on Row 10. It states "Row 10: P2, K2, P2, K2, P8, K2, P2, K2, P2 ", but the P8 is coming over a P2, K4, P2 series, and if we are indeed to be knitting the knits and purling the purls on the WS, then it should read: Row 10: P2, K2, P2, K4, P4, K4, P2, K2, P2 . Thank you again! It's been a delight to learn cables with your gorgeous work. :)
I am amazed you made that so easy to understand and I have always wanted to knit because it is so soft, but I have never seen any explain the cable stitch so that even I could follow along. Thanks your site is great.
I've been avoiding learning cabling because it looks complicated for a beginner like myself. This is so beautiful, however, that I may have to suck it up and get learning - thank you for sharing it!
I was able to do the first 18 stitches woohoo! Thank you so much for free pattern and color coding. I'm a new knitter and now know I can do it!! It takes concentration but doable!
I've been wanting to cable for some time now.. just needed to be brave..lol. This pattern is not only gorgeous but looks like something that I can handle. thanks for posting it
Thank you so much Your work is shared everywhere...I am glad I am subcribed. You always have such polite voice...I sometimes wonder if your high...don't change for anyone.. your teaching methods are so polite..
Excellent narrator. Slower, and more importantly your fingers are positioned expertly so we can actually see what you are doing. Thank you. Oh your voice is very calming also so we don't get nervous
Thank you so much for this awesome pattern! This is the first time I've seen your videos, as I'm a beginner knitter, and I have yet to attempt cable knitting. However, I fell in love with your pattern and luckily I have a beautiful Kelly green cashmere yarn to use for this project! Thank you for all of your contributions! Sincerely, Gina
Aha! I knew that there would be something good I was missing! I was recently on a small holiday without internet - such s pretty stitch! And a great tutorial for beginner cabelers (sure that's a word!)! Thanks again
I love your videos so very helpful and you explain everything so clearly. Question when using cables does the cable holder have to be the same size as your knitting needles?
thank you for showing this video, I am working on crocheting, however, I just can't get the cable pattern down. I love this pattern and would like to make a blanket out of this pattern. I see you cast on 24 stitches and it creates a panel, would you suggest working in larger amounts, like 48, or 72 stitches, or would you suggest keeping the 24 stitches and sewing the panels together to create a blanket ?
I'm a beginner - this was my first time working with cables - so much fun and love the design! :) I'm not sure how to join the seams together to make the cozy. (I've only ever joined knit stitches before!) Do you have advice on how to join together?
Hi Kristen! I love this pattern so much! I've just finished a neck warmer and I want to ask your permission to translate the pattern to portuguese (Brazil) and post it in my blog. Let me know, ok? Thanks!!
If I want to do the version you do in this video. Do I just follow the steps you’re showing from pink to purple over and over again? I’ve never done cable before so I’m a bit confused but I would really want to try it!
I love this!!! I wondered how that kind of pattern was made. I have some beautiful green yarn that would look lovely knit into this pattern......Hmmmmmm
I'll definitely tag you! Do you think it's wide enough for a scarf? Or should I add some garter edging?? I have that green Plucky yarn that would be perfect for this! It's worsted weight, and they suggest knitting on a 7US. So I'm thinking maybe cast on an extra 8 stitches to give me an edge of 4 in garter. What do you think????
When you begin, you already have 2 stitches on your right needle... How did they get there? Are they knit? Purl? Or just passed over? Im really confused and want to get started ! Thx!
I love this pattern. I'd like to ask if I may, where you get your knitting needles from?? You just make knitting look so easy! I can't wait to get started!
Even with your wonderful tutorial I'm still confused. I'll watch this again when I am a more experienced knitter because just simple cables give me the terror sweats lol.
Question. I don't get the colour coding thing. So do you do it for everything? There is 16 rows on the website. Do you do the 6 colour coding rows then do 16 rows?
Hello, I love this pattern and am planning to try the one with two cables and borders, but Im fairly new to knitting so I don't understand what is meant by "Sts" in the first row of instructions: CO (24 x 2) + 8 Sts. Does this mean cast on 48 stitches and then cast on 8 more stitches before starting row 1 of the pattern?
Wow! This is the best stitch yet!! Thanks again for the videos, I love this one :) Also, can I use a regular 1 pointed knitting needle instead of a cable needle?
I've subscribed to your channel & website! Love them both!!! However, I spilt my water on print out of the this pattern and am in need to reprinting it. Your page does not have a "sign in" for those of us who are already subscribers and won't allow to access the pattern to print out unless we "subscribe". When we tried to "subscribe" again, it notifies that our emails are already in use. Please advise those of us who are already subscribers to access your patterns?
+amy pavwoski Amy, if you still have your welcome email, there's a link to access Freebies. Otherwise, email me at kristen@studioknitsf.com and I'll send it!
I am struggling with this pattern where you said on the even rows just knit the Ks & purl the Ps, but Row 9 has a P2, C4B, P2, and Row 10 has P8. Please help!
Hi there! This pattern is beautiful, but the link to the pattern is showing an error. Anyone have access to a working link for this pattern? Thank you!
Personally, I would add stitches to either side to make a square. For example, if you would like a garter stitch border and a bit of room around the cable, you could: Cast On 24 + 8 Odd Rows: K2, P2, (CABLE PATTERN), P2, K2 Even Rows: K4, (CABLE PATTERN), K4 Repeat 16 Rows until your piece is the length you desire, then Bind Off!
Hi Chrystal - Welcome to knitting! This video should help. Right & Wrong Side (RS vs WS): Knitting Lessons for Beginners th-cam.com/video/2ydfl5i8r2Y/w-d-xo.html
I am a first time knitter. I would love to do this but there is not enough step by step instruction in video or print. You show casting on 24 and then went straight to knitting a row but you already had rows knitted. Row one only consists of 18 stitches I'll have 6 left at the end please help.
I am so glad someone else does the double pointed needles as their cable needle
I do as well, I find the cable needles are too fiddly.
I love it!! You're instructions were amazing and made what was going to be a complicated endeavor (in my mind) so simple.

Hi, Rajvir! You've been my first commenter a few times now! Thanks for watching and happy knitting to you!

St Patric was Romano British (ish) He was captured by ‘Irish’ pirates and held captive in Ireland. This was just about the time the Anglo Saxons were invading Britain.This pattern was popular on Saxon and British crosses
The color-coded knitting instructions are so useful and easy to follow. Great idea!
Thanks, Mr. Tom!!! It really helps my eye to quickly find the instructions and lessens confusion. Hope it helps you, too!

Love this pattern.
My question is this-can you do this with two colors? For example, green as the knot and orange as the background?
I love you patterns. Im not good with patterns, but yours are so easy for me to follow.
I really enjoy your knitting tutorials. I have learned a lot.

Please can you show how to knit hot water bottle cozy.
I love your videos
If I want to do the version you do in this video. Do I just follow the steps you’re showing from pink to purple over and over again? I’ve never done cable before so I’m a bit confused but I would really want to try it!
Hi I like to knit but I want to know where u got the yarn from when u uploaded the Irish moss stitch
I love this!!! I wondered how that kind of pattern was made. I have some beautiful green yarn that would look lovely knit into this pattern......Hmmmmmm
Awesome! I'd love to see a pic if you try it!
I'll definitely tag you! Do you think it's wide enough for a scarf? Or should I add some garter edging?? I have that green Plucky yarn that would be perfect for this! It's worsted weight, and they suggest knitting on a 7US. So I'm thinking maybe cast on an extra 8 stitches to give me an edge of 4 in garter. What do you think????
Pattymac Knits there's a write up in the pattern near the bottom that says how to do it :)
Thank you. you are very good with directions!
I love the help I am getting with such clear instructions.
So wonderful to hear, Lorraine, thanks. Happy knitting to you!
It is possible to make corners with the celtic knots? like corners for a blanket or a pillow, like the mitered corner but with the celtic knot braid??
When you begin, you already have 2 stitches on your right needle...
How did they get there?
Are they knit? Purl? Or just passed over?
Im really confused and want to get started ! Thx!
Absolutely gorgeous!! I am definitely going to have to try this pattern this weekend. By the way, where did you get those beautiful scissors?
So how are y'all binding off in pattern? I'd like to complete the cable points to match co. Any tips?
Your videos are so good. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the pattern! It’s absolutely beautiful!
I love the look of the Celtic cable! Do you have this pattern for loom knitting? I found one on pinterest, but it's not in English.
I love this pattern. I'd like to ask if I may, where you get your knitting needles from?? You just make knitting look so easy! I can't wait to get started!
Thanks! You made this alot easier for me
I really like this pattern and I am going to try it out. Thanks.
Love it! Beautiful! Thank you for all your awesome tutorials!
@studio knit - Can this work in the round? I'm assuming you just knit everything instead of the purls.
good evening,
It's very interesting.
It is very nice.
thanks.
good continuation.
cordialy.
I'm so excited to try this! Thank you for explaining it in such an easy way :)
Most amazing simple to the point.
If I want to make a baby blanket how many stitches would you cast on?
Thanks, how to make the saxon braid in scarf ,cowl edges.
Even with your wonderful tutorial I'm still confused. I'll watch this again when I am a more experienced knitter because just simple cables give me the terror sweats lol.
Beautiful pattern! Can this pattern be used for a headband? I love your videos! 😊
Question. I don't get the colour coding thing. So do you do it for everything? There is 16 rows on the website. Do you do the 6 colour coding rows then do 16 rows?
What is done with the last 3 stitches on the needle after completing the pattern. Also is the first stitch slipped?
So beautiful
Hello, I love this pattern and am planning to try the one with two cables and borders, but Im fairly new to knitting so I don't understand what is meant by "Sts" in the first row of instructions: CO (24 x 2) + 8 Sts. Does this mean cast on 48 stitches and then cast on 8 more stitches before starting row 1 of the pattern?
+Janeal James Yes, exactly!
Got it, thanks!
Just out of curiosity, what exactly does "Sts" mean in patterns?
Janeal James I'm pretty sure that it means "stitches"
Love, love, love this! ❤ So excited to try it!
Hi, Meg! Thanks so much! Have fun with it and take your time!
Wow! This is the best stitch yet!! Thanks again for the videos, I love this one :)
Also, can I use a regular 1 pointed knitting needle instead of a cable needle?
Is this a good pattern for a scarf?
Yay i finally got the hamg of it ❤️ thank uu!! Its soo cute!!
So wonderful, congratulations! 💖
Beautiful pattern.
Does it have starter rows?
Hallo. Das keltische Muster gefällt mir sehr gut. Hätten Sie diese Anleitung auch in deutsch? LG
So so Nice ...thank you👍🍀
Do you know a good website that I could get a tapestry needle

do you have a pattern for the Celtic braid for a square?
what yarn was used in this video i like the weight and color used?
@Casey. Mentioned in both the video and in the description. There's even a link.
Great instructions. Thank you!
So so Nice...thank you 👍😘
I am struggling with this pattern where you said on the even rows just knit the Ks & purl the Ps, but Row 9 has a P2, C4B, P2, and Row 10 has P8. Please help!
Irene R asked the same question 3 months ago, but I don't see a Reply.
On Row 10, replace the P8 with K2, P4, K2. If you are unsure, just do a test of that part of the pattern with some spare yarn
Very pretty!!
Thanks so much!
i love this. thanks for sharing.
Love you work that is beautiful patten thank's .
Hi there! This pattern is beautiful, but the link to the pattern is showing an error. Anyone have access to a working link for this pattern? Thank you!
i think im going to use this as the pattern for my pockets instead of the one provided!
Great idea! That'll be gorgeous!!!
Studio Knit would i just follow the even and odd rows for a bigger swatch?
Personally, I would add stitches to either side to make a square. For example, if you would like a garter stitch border and a bit of room around the cable, you could: Cast On 24 + 8 Odd Rows: K2, P2, (CABLE PATTERN), P2, K2 Even Rows: K4, (CABLE PATTERN), K4 Repeat 16 Rows until your piece is the length you desire, then Bind Off!
this is beautiful!!
How do I get pattern I tried the link and it didnt qork
