The Weekly Swatch: Braid Cable Knit Stitch Pattern / Tutorial

 

Braid Cable Knit Stitch Pattern


Following up on my plan to explore more cable stitch motifs in my weekly swatch motifs, I have prepared another simple cable stitch for this week's swatch post, the Braid Cable Knit Stitch. 

The cables are worked on the right side rows and following the completion of the set-up rows (1 and 2), the stitch is worked over three rows.
