In this DROPS video we show how to knit a "spin" cabel over 2 stitches.
We knit two cables consecutively with 2 purl stitches between and 2 purl stitches on each side of the cabels.

Cable:
Round 1: K 2nd st, but keep it on the needle, K 1st st and slip both sts off needle off the left needle.
Round 2: 2. K over the cabel stitches
Repeat 1st and 2nd round.

Dear Berenice, there are no written out isntructions for the diagrams, not only because they are available in several languages, but also because we believe that with diagrams you not only see the very next step, but also the "bigger picture" , how the stitches and rows relate to each other "en large". We do have a lesson on how to read diagrams HERE. Happy Knitting!

Jag undrar; om man i ett mönster för slätstickning vill göra en fläta behöver man då ändra antalet maskor för att få samma stl på plagget? Jag söker ett mönster för herr, med aranmönster och sjalkrage med knapp Mvh Kristina

Hei Åsa Kristina. Det kommer litt an på hvor stor fletten skal være og om det er flere fletter. Flere fletter vil trekke arbeide litt sammen enn ved bare glattstrikk. mvh DROPS design
