| 12-Stitch Brioche Braided Cable
This braided cable involves 12 stitches
beginning with a “knit column” and
ending with a “slipped yarn over column” on the RS.
In the first cable row, a 4x4 cable is
worked, using the first
eight stitches of
the 11 involved, by placing 4 stitches onto cable needle behind the work.
Work the next 4 stitches in pattern,
then work the 4 stitches in pattern
from the cable needle. Work the last
4 stitches in pattern. Mark this row. |
Work in pattern until you can count six
rows in knit column on RS including
the marked row. Then work the second
cable braid over the same 12 stitches,
again a 4x4 cable. First work 4 stitches
in pattern, then place the middle four
stitches onto a cable needle and hold
them to the front of the work, work
4 stitches in pattern, then work the
4 stitches from the cable needle in
pattern. Repeat from first cable after
12 RS knit column rows have been
worked including the marked row. |
