Crochet Cable Scarf

Christmas Cabled Scarf Have you tried crochet cables? I had never heard of them until about 15 years ago and have been intrigued by them ever since. Most crochet cable stitches use post stitches to create the look of stitches passing over and under each other. A post stitch is when you work around the post (or stem) of a stitch (instead of working into the loops on top) – this creates texture because now your stitches pop-out in front[Read more]

Cable Crochet Cowl

Cable Crochet Cowl This Cable Crochet Cowl is full of texture due to its 3 rows of braided crochet cables! Crochet cables add great texture to your projects. They use what is called “post stitches” because you work around the ‘stem‘ of the next stitch, not into the top loops as usual.
