This month’s free stitch is an impressive combination of lace and cables; a valuable addition to your knitting stitch collection.

Although this stitch appears complex, it is really quite easy. If you can knit a cable, you can knit this lovely pattern.

Picture it used for a baby blanket; all it needs is a seed stitch border. Or it would be wonderful as the back panel of a cardigan. What will it inspire in your creative knitting imagination?

This stitch can be found in the Pick-A-Stitch™ Digital Library, under the Cables & Twisted Stitches category.
