Cables with no cable needle

[BasedOnFantasy]

extremely helpful ! I just learned how to knit about a week ago and I'm already able to do these cables thanks to your video.

[caro5541]

This looks a very good technique as I am also a knitter who has an escaping cable needle which needs to be hunted for at every row. Hah, now a cable needle is redundant thanks to your video.

I like your pattern and plan to use your cables against a plain background, on a jersey for my grandson. I'm really pleased you thought of this and uploaded the video. Kudos to you.

[mersylla]

What if you were to CF or CB a bigger number of stitches ?

[Kristonia69]

Woah!! Thanks!! Too bad my cb's look better than my cf's! front cables look way easier.

[gurl4Godalwayz]

Ahhhh! That's scary!!

[thoneywood]

Thank you for this. Now I'm wondering why I ever bothered with a cable needle. Cheers xx

[Hymanten]

I tried my best to keep up but I too cannot hear everything do to the wind. Wish I could do this stitch. :(

[shlbycindy1]

Thank you for a great video. I can't understand why some people were complaining about wind noise. You were very easy to understand.

[spagetti568]

Hello! This video was great and I'm sorry if you've had to answer this question before but I was wondering what the thing was you were actually knitting on. and what was the location where you filmed it. I got the strange impression of some boardwalk or ocean pier. But I know you said North Dakota so...

[theknittingsiren]

@spagetti568 It's not actually a written pattern, just something out of my head (a baby bunting).

And yes, I am in North Dakota :-) We are in the Great Plains which means not many trees which in turn means LOTS of wind. I'm standing on my back porch

[amandwee]

How do you make this pattern?

[maeveanne1]

jUST A THOUGH, 1JAKEGRANNY AND FOUADJAFAR, HOW MANY VIDEOS HAVE

YOU TAKEN THE TROUBLE TO RECORD FOR THE BENEFIT OF US ALL , sMART

ALEXS

[maeveanne1]

tHE WIND WAS NO TROUBLE i AM HARD OF HEARING YET UNDERSTUD ALL YOU SAID , SOME PEOPLE JUST LIKE TO MOAN. iF YOU CANT SAY ANYTHING NICE, TRY SAYING NOTHING AT ALL. GOOD VIDEO BABES

[ImaFuddyDuddy]

Thank you. Yours is the best video I've found to demonstrate this. Even with the wind :0).

[1Jakesgranny]

If I was going to post an instructional video for all to see I wouldn't have recorded it out in the wind. Probably is a good video but because of the noise it wasn't worth finishing.

[Fouadjafar]

its great that ur doing this to help all of us whom need help, but couldn't u do it without the wind? CANT BARELY MAKE OUT WHAT U SAID

[Skenn454]

Wee! I am excited. This is my first cabling, even though you didn't suggest it. I do stupid things all the time..

[theknittingsiren]

@Skenn454 Haha!  I never listen either. Go for it!

[poniesrus]

OMG... it's like, EXTREME knitting!!! Did you learn this or are you a rebel daredevil?

[theknittingsiren]

@poniesrus (this is adorabubbleknits) Extreme knitting, I like that! I did figure it out on my own but I know a lot of other people do it too. I think there is even a book out there about it.

[KittenCollision]

holy crap, I'm now having impure thoughts about my yarn...is this bad? I don't need to go buy new needles! (except I do need to buy a set of interchangable knitpicks)

[cornmessa]

I can't believe how awesome this is! Thanks!!

[Ashley5341]

i love youtube!

[TheAutumnWinter]

I was estatic when I finally found a video explining both fron t and back crossed cables, so now I can make owls out of my cables on a sweater project! It's going to be so awesome!!!

[cnith2]

I lose them too! THANK YOU!! Yeah the wind was crappy but I didn't care... this is awesome! No more cumbersome (and easily lost I agree!!) cable needles! :)

[amandie825]

[cmrpaul]

This is awesome! *bows* *unworthy* Thank you!!

[herutura]

It blew my mind when you let those stitches go. Braver woman than I!

Way awesome!! Thanks for sharing!!

[DawnChs]

Thank you for taking the time to show this, lovely work also!

[ghoryhuon]

could you show me the begining. I don't know how to do the beginning.

[banditguy1]

Awesome! I watched a few 2 other videos (one where you couldn't see how the yarn was being slipped, and one where they were knitting so fast I was unable to comprehend what was happening) before I found your video. Definitely going to try this, looks like it will save a lot of time. Thanks for posting!

[GDRAGON43v3r]

really cool. really helpful. really windy too xD

[mancantchew]

"oh my gosh...that is so easy. that is so awesome" that's what said after watching. wow, so excited! thank you! and the wind didn't bother me at all. you were very clear.

[BffWillAndAlish]

My knitting kit never came with a cable needle, so this was very helpful! :)

[00bonita]

Awesome ! i'll try it

[Justlivelife101]

You have alot of wind :)

[headlessbubble]

great sound effects :D

[smallsab2]

yeah feels so cold :$ :D

[lirioscelestiais]

Thanks it's a precious technique!!!

[jturnrich]

Wonderful technique! Clear, easy to follow instruction. I'm knitting a reversible cable blanket and this was so helpful. Thanks.

[mkhoviyeun]

wow, that was great!! it looked EASY!! i can't wait to try it! ;) thanks!

[Tawnia71]

Thank you for the demo, wish i coud have heard you better though; windy day that day ;)

[CrochetBallerina]

THX SOO MUCH!! this really helped me. I am a beginner and I wasn't sure  how to do that without a cable needle. And now you show it really easy thx. keep up with your knitting your REALLY good. :)

[saloneffects]

cool, what pattern i that ur making?

[kissekisse]

Thank you so much for the video! It looks quite scary to try out as a beginner like me but I think it can be handy to know how to make cables without cable needles. It is very helpful! Thanks again! :-)

[j8nnyl]

Excellent video! too bad about the wind or noise distortion going on, but it didnt get in the way too much. This was GREAT instruction. I have never done cables before but definitely have the itch to get started. So once i do a sample with a CN, i will try this method without a needle. wish me luck ;-) Thanks again so much for your informative video. Beautiful knitting by the way!! :-)

[cornisyummy7]

holy crap ur right! i'm a new knitter and i wanted to know how to knit awesome stitches and i dont think this is the way for me! cuz i dont have a cable needle so i was like "yah this seems like the perfect video for me!" but i'm not that great a knitter to be able to do that!

P.S terrible quality

[missbussy10]

this is clear! in spite of the wind on the background.

[Needlewich]

Loved this video. Would love to see more knitting cables without the cable needles!

[Needlewich]

I really enjoyed this video. Do you have a pattern or chart that I can use to make a scarf without using cable needles? Thanks so much.

[tr1shapumk1n]

Thank you so much! This was EXACTLY what I was looking for. The audio didn't really disturb me because I could still hear you. Thanks!

[conbuer]

Why would you post a video that could be helpful with such terrible audio. Very distracting!

[Tolu1994]

that was lots of help thanks.

[ceereese]

Awesome. Just what I need to see. thanks for the demonstration.

[sweetbibinka]

Do you have a pattern available for the project that you are demonstrating the cables without needles technique?

What size needles and yarn are you using?  It looks like you have double the yarn. Thank you for your demo. It is very easy to follow.

[EveningStar0903]

wow thanks.

btw, how much should i cast on if i want to make a cabled scarf using your method that is about 4 inches thick?

[Fangirl77]

Wow cables really do look harder than they are. Thank you :D I officially understand cables.

[Mom2BJT]

cool

[myfaeriegirl]

*about to cry* that was beautiful! *angrily* and you scared the crap out of me by dropping those stitches!! Sheesh!

[cmrpaul]

@myfaeriegirl I so agree with you! My heart was racing! lol

[myfaeriegirl]

@cmrpaul I know right?! I nearly died re-watching that today, each time she slips those dad-blasted stiches, she does a little "gasp" thing that makes my heart skip a beat! a real nail biter...I held my breath again watching it!

[TsukiNoKissu]

How many stitches do you have between your cables? And what stitch did you use?

Thanks!

Also, this video was so helpful, thank you so much!

[Nfdjksljfdksl]

Too fast and the wind is so freakin' annoying.

[mo0nangel]

awesome! thanks!!
