Ready to streamline your cable knitting? Enter cabling without a cable needle! It’s true - it can be done, and it’s not as scary as it may seem. Need to practice your cables first? Watch how to C4B & C4F
I do want to recommend using a sport to worsted non-superwash yarn, there’s lots of reasons for this, but mostly, the way superwash yarn is treated makes it slippery.. dropping stitches is never any fun. The slight toothless of a non-superwash yarn let's it stick to itself, just in case you loose a stitch in the pinch and shuffle method. Also, you can absolutely do this with thinner yarns, but I’d recommend starting with a thicker yarn first.
The pattern for this particular cable is:
Row 1 (RS): k4
Row 2 (WS): p4
Row 3: C4B or C4F
Row 4: p4
Repeat rounds 1-4
Want to save this for later? Just pin it!
