Top knit tips


The elegant cables on this sweater look fabulous, but what should you do if your efforts aren’t looking as neat? Firstly, don’t panic. Cables never look perfect until they’ve been blocked. Secondly, don’t work them too loosely. Use a cable needle the same size or smaller than your main needles and tighten your stitches as you work.
