OK so I decided to try calbes and I’m not happy :wall:
No matter what I do at the end of the “twist” I and getting loose stitches. I’m not knitting in the round, but it looks like the ladder of loose stitches you get between double points. What could I be doing wrong? I am putting the cable in the back.
I’m making a belt and the pattern is VERY simple, I do 5 rows before the cable, it’s 6 rows of reverse stocknette, 8 of the cable and then 6 again.
I really can’t figure out what I am doing wrong. :?? :shrug:
It’s very common. The only thing I do is try to be conscious of keeping the stitches very close together as I work them and keeping the yarn tight as I switch from the cable stitch to the next purl stitch. It’ll come with practice.
