Welcome to Day 10 of the 21 Days of Cable Knit Stitches Series!
Today’s stitch uses the same stitches we used on Day 3 but in a completely different combination. Have I mentioned how much I love knitting and the endless possibilities of knit stitches!
Materials:
- Size US 11 {8mm} Knitting Needles
- Approximately 75 Yards {68m} of a Super Bulky Yarn
- {I used Lana Grande by Cascade Yarns}
- Cable Needle
Notes:
- The CO edge is the width.
- You can use any category of yarn you’d like, just keep in mind that the thinner the yarn, the narrower your headband.
