Description

From the book: "This is similar to the Chain Cable, except that it has one additional stitch in the center and more rows between cable rows. The Medallion Cable lends itself readily to extra ornamentation in the center of the "medallion", for instance with a Bobble formed in the center stitch at each repetition of Row 1."
