"I do not understand the "yf" in the pattern. Is this the same as a yarn over, yo, so the "(yf) twice" would be a "(yo) twice?please explain if you could. Thank you."

"Red Hearts Scrubby yarns are now available in three different styles which are sparkle, smoothie, and cotton. I prefer the cotton as it is really the best and most absorbent material to use in the kitchen and especially for something that will be near / used with water most of the time. These could also be doubled for more durability."

"Reading over all of the comments on this post, I am both amused and amazed at how many people dont understand how to click the direct links to the free patterns and then either printing the pattern or saving it as a PDF. This is an awesome collection of afghans and definitely one to keep bookmarked."

From pullovers to jackets and bags, you’ll be able to put a cable twist on every pattern you can think of.


Lily Chin doesn’t just provide you with the knowledge of creating a cable stitch, but she also shows you how to put those skills into practice.
