Workshop Sari Nordlund - Cables for advanced knitters - english

Samstag, 04. Oktober 2025, 12.30 - 15.30 Uhr, Ticket beinhaltet ein Wochenendticket

The advanced class will dive deeper into the cable technique. We will learn how to knit cables without a cable needle and explore more complicated cables. During this course we will also discuss how cables affect the gauge and what you need to take into consideration if you want to add cables into existing patterns. 

Required knowledge: basic knit and purl stitches, basic increases (m1L, m1Lp, m1R and m1Rp), basic decreases (k2tog, p2tog, ssk and ssp), basic cables, working charts flat and in the round

Materials needed:

• small skeins of yarn for swatching. The yarns should be preferably DK or worsted weight, for example merino or other smooth fibers with good stitch definition in light, unicolor colorway so you can easily see your stitches

•  needles suitable for the yarn, for example 3 mm or 3.5 mm needles. I suggest using 40 cm cables, but you can choose DPNs or longer cables, such as you are comfortable making swatches with

• a cable needle or an extra DPN in the same size or slightly smaller

No homework
