[tutorial] 2/2 LaLC

These cables lean to the left, but they have an element of lace in them as well!

See it in action in our Muntins Scarf.

Materials

A cable needle (cn)

Step 1: Slip next 2 stitches to cable needle and place in front of work.

Step 2: Knit 2 together from LN.

Step 3: Yarnover and knit 2 from cn. This picture shows it after the Yarnover. In order to k2 from a locking stitch marker, I first slip the stitches onto the LN and then knit them.

You’re done! You’ve now done a 2/2 LC!

Practice makes perfect

Give this a go on a swatch first. If you’re familiar with the cable without a cable needle technique, you may even want to try it here!
