Ribbed cableEntry/Object ID
2020.1.424Description
From the book: "The Ribbed Cable is very elegant, and is frequently seen in fisherman sweaters. Note that there are two ways of working Row 2, and that in both cases the knit stitches are purled and the purl stitches knitted in the 4-stitch group. When two Ribbed Cables are used on either side of a common center, one should be done by the front-cross method and the other by the back-cross method, to balance the patterns. For a Ribbed Wave Cable, work the front-cross and back-cross methods alternately, every 10th row in the same cable."Collection
