New Garter Bar Video - Woven Cable

Lesson 11 Woven Cable is up.

This is a fancy cable that is greatly simplified by using the garter bar.

Steps to the pattern:

1. Knit 2 rows.
2. First transfer: put 10 stitches in the center on the garter bar and cross them in pairs - right over left. To do that, move the stitches to the right one needle and put the second from right one on the first empty needle, then skip a needle, then put the next on the needles, skip one, put one on, across. Pick up stitches still on garter bar, lift and move 2 needles to left to cross the stitches and put the remaining 5 stitches on the remaining empty needles.
3. Knit 2 rows.
4. Put 8 stitches in the center on the garter bar and cross them in pairs, this time, left over right. To do that, move the stitches to the left one needle and put the rightmost stitch on its needle, then skip one stitch, put the next on its needle, and on across. After those 4 are moved, pick up the garter bar and move 2 needles to the right, then put the remaining 4 stitches on the remaining 4 empty needles.

Repeat that for the pattern.
