Trying to knit from a Swedish pattern.. Need help with cables!

Hi everyone!

I’m new to this forum, my question might already have been answered before, but I couldn’t find it. I am currently trying to knit a sweater; the pattern I got from Ravelry (Ravelry: “Love hood ” – Men's sweater with hoodie pattern by Järbo). Unfortunately the pattern is Swedish, and I cannot figure out how to knit the cables. Can someone help me translate them? That would be great! I know the top two mean knit and purl, but that is about as far as I got… :sweat_smile:

Tomorrow I will translate it for you.

I am sorry for replying so late to this, I had to take my wife to the hospital so I simply did not have time to translate.

  1. Knit on right side and purl on wrong side

  3. Purl 1 twisted purl stitch, through the back loop
  4. Move 1 stitch on cable needle in front of work. K1 stitch, K1 from cable needle.
  5. Move 1 knit stitch on cable needle in front of work. P1 stitch, K1 from cable needle.
  6. Move 1 purl stitch on cable needle behind the work. K1 stitch, P1 from cable needle.
