-ETUDE NO. 5 SHAWL-
Cabling is one of those knitting techniques that is often feared without reason. They’re
actually quite easy to work, and add a sophisticated flair to an otherwise simplistic piece of
knitwear. In this lesson, the garter stitch body of a semi-circular shawl is jazzed up by a
repeating cabled border in twisted rib. It might sound complicated, but the pattern is
easily memorized and fun to knit. You’ll turn heads every time you wear this piece!
