A pretty braided cable dishcloth pattern I created. This cable looks just like real hair when it’s braided.
Abbreviations:
k = knit
p – purl
c4f = (cable 4 front)- slip 2 stitches to a cable needle and hold at the front of the work, knit 2, then knit the 2 stitches from the cable needle.
c4b = (cable 4 back)- slip 2 stitches to a cable needle and hold at the back of the work, knit 2, then knit the 2 stitches from the cable needle.
Cast on 36
Begin by creating a few rows of garter stitch.
Row 1: K3, p3, k6, p3, k6, p3, k6, p3, k3
Row 2: k3, k3, p6, k3, p6, k3, p6, k3, k3
Row 3: k3, p3, k2, c4f, p3, k2, c4f, p3, k2, c4f, p3, k3
Row 4: k3, k3, p6, k3, p6, k3, p6, k3, k3
Row 5: k3, p3, c4b, k2, p3, c4b, k2, p3, c4b, k2, p3, k3
Row 6: k3, k3, p6, k3, p6, k3, p6, k3, k3
Once desired length is achieved, finish with a few rows of garter stitch.
