2020.1.417Description
From the book: "Braid Cables (not to be confused with Plait Cables) consist of three knit ribs traveling across a purl-stitch ground, and crossing one another alternately in true braid fashion. Braid Cables are novel in appearance and interesting to work. Also, they are capable of much variation. Three types of Braid Cable are given: Close, Barred, and Twisted. Other variations, of course, are possible."Collection

Helen learned to knit from her mother as a young adult. She knitted less during her career as an NHS nurse and manager, but returned to the hobby several years ago at the encouragement of a colleague. She is a self-proclaimed knitting geek, and loves learning more about yarns and techniques.Lexicon
