Today's main article is about a new style of cable charting so I have copied the article to post for everyone here to read.
| Honeycomb Cable, Lily Chin's Way |
 |
| CO 32 sts (8 sets, 4 sts in each set) Work 8 rows in St st. *First crossing row: [Work 4/4 Left Cross (cn in front). work 4/4 Right Cross (cn in back)] 2 times. Work 7 rows in St st. Second crossing row: [Work 4/4 Right Cross (cn in back), work 4/4 Left Cross (cn in front)] 2 times. Work 7 rows in St st. Repeat from * for pattern. |
Take a look at the chart to the left of the swatch. The numbers at the bottom of the chart represent the number of stitches you're crossing as each cable is worked. In this case, you're crossing 4 stitches over 4 stitches. The numbers at the right of the chart represent the number of plain (non-crossing rows) worked between crossing rows. (What isn't shown in this chart are the garter stitch edging stitches, which were done just for the swatch.)
