Maybe its because im very very new to cables but i love how they look but the remembering when to actually do the cables and everything stops me from doing them alot

I love cables
I LOVE cables
learning how to do them without a cable jump helps, and the counting rows between the cable stitches can be marked at the end of your row…
one way is to place a marker a stitch in from the end, move that marker each row and back to the start again so you can count how many stitches to know how many rows it’s been.

even the fancy ones are still “this many stitches over/behind this many stitches” you just have to remember which order and how many… like dance steps.
I get mixed up with the words, so I like a picture or chart and then I just copy what I see

I have an ancient book of cable charts, I just look up a chart as close to what I’m looking at and use that in place of whatever is in the pattern…mostly because I don’t use other peoples patterns any more, but I got into the habit a long time ago due to the confusion.

they look so complicated, then you do one and see they are insanely easy and you wonder why you were so afraid of them
