Lace and Cables Knitting Stitch | Knit with Aabhar

Pattern Description

---

Lace and Cables Knitting Stitch features alternating columns of a 6-stitch cable and stacked eyelet arrow motifs. It almost looks like the cables are framing the delicate lace work.

Being a cable pattern, it knits up into a soft fabric, especially if you use a heavier weight yarn. And unlike most larger cables, it is not bulky because of the lace columns.
