Cable Bracelet Reviewed by Rama on 2008-11-16
Be warned - this is much more difficult than the seed stitch bracelet! The instructions could be more explicit with exactly how and where to decrease, stitch counts at the end of every row etc. However, it is a good way to learn a few techniques. For example, I learned kfb purl stitch. Unfortunately the instructions were not on this website and I had to go elsewhere to learn. Also a good way to become familiar with cable for a little more involved projects. By the way I am wrapping my cover around batting rather than a solid bracelet center. If I wrapped around a wood bracelet, the knit cover kept sliding front to back as you take the bracelet on and off.
