Cables?

#1

Can you show me where to find all the different kinds of cables to do and how?
There’s more than one way, right?

There are a lot of great videos here at Knittinghelp. Go to this link and scroll down halfway. There are videos on cables.

I know how to knit cables.
I just wanted to know if it was always going to look the same or if there were many other kinds, and where I could find them at.

Again scroll down to twisted stitches and cables. It’s the only link I have to different cables. Aside from that check your library for books on knitting. There are a number of books about stitch patterns and aran designs.

There are lots of stitch patterns at knittingfool.com. I think she has them classified as to what they involve (lace, textured, twists or cables) and she has pictures of quite a few, so you could pick out the cable patterns from there.
