First Pattern: Easy Cables!!


Hi everyone! Jennifer has graciously allowed us to post her pattern for her Easy Cable Scarf! You can click here for the link to the pdf. To the left there is my scarf. It was my first time trying cables and I found this pattern really easy to follow and easy to read. I never knew it was so easy to cable!
I suggest a stitch counter if you lose your place easily, like me lol, and a cable needle is nice but a double ended needle works just as well! Thank again to Jennifer for this great pattern, make sure you check out her Ravelry page for some of her other great patterns! Good luck everyone and keep an eye out for more patterns!

ravelry group

TA DA

So, bear with me this is the first post. Hopefully we will have many more posts to come. Just to let you know what Ditzy Knits is all about. DK is here to help out fellow beginner knitters that want to do more then but don't know where to start. We are here to help newbies find, easy patterns that aren't boring, because we want to do more then baby blankets and basic knit scarves. We are here to point out the best patterns to help you learn the ropes as well as make something pretty that you will be proud to show off. IE-Stuff that looks impressive but was easy enough to make. We know new knitters want a challenge but don't want to feel like they are doing open heart surgery. So, give us a little bit of time to get a few patterns posted up here and visit me on Ravelry.com! Im trying to get a group started up there.
See ya'll around!!
Love,
Ditzy
