Cable Capelet

Lion Brand® Homespun®

GAUGE:

7 sts + 11 rows = 4 in. [10 cm] in pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

STITCH EXPLANATION:

5/5 LC (5 over 5 left cross) Slip 5 sts to cable needle and hold in front, k5, then k5 from cable needle.

NOTES:

Editor's Note: Based on customer comments, this pattern was revised on May 12, 2008.

Cable Capelet Reviewed by Alicia on 2009-11-28 ****
I loved the photo. Luckily when I tried the pattern, it had already been revised. But it was quite small. So I ripped it up and started again.

I added 24 stitches, and 10 additional rows. I know one of the reviews suggested adding 20, but I felt it was enough with 10.

The result after the revisions was great. I have now made 2 and am working on a 3rd. This will make a great gift for anyone.
