It’s Day 18 of our 31 Days of Knitting Challenge. Todays stitch is called the divided cable stitch. I fell in love with this stitch the moment I saw it and I had to recreate it on the loom. I love that one side of the stitch has a beautiful crossing pattern and the other side is a traditional rib stitch.
HOW TO KNIT THE DIVIDED CABLE STITCH {FOR THE LOOM}
MATERIALS USED IN THE VIDEO:
Knitting Loom: Regular Gauge Kiss Loom {with 1 r in between the pins & the pegs} – We are working with just one side of the regular gauge modular loom.
Knitting Tools: We are using the knitting tool that comes with the kiss looms, but the tool that comes with your loom usually works best!
Ball of Yarn: We are using Tosh Chunky 100% Merino Wool by Madeline Tosh in the color “Posy”
