Like the twisting, braiding, wandering stitches themselves, cable techniques cross generations of knitters, weaving together layers of knitting history into a cozy fabric of fiber tradition. Our newest cable collection, Crossings adds a new thread to this tradition, a fibery homage to immemorial motifs and classic constructions.

To keep your cables looking their cabliest it helps to know the wool your working with, so first Hannah and I go full yarn nerd about cabling with our favorite Knit Picks wools, comparing and contrasting all of the yarns used in this latest cable collection.

After that, Stacey and Hilary explore the collection itself, discussing their favorite patterns with a bit of background and a glimpse behind the scenes.

Enjoy!
