You’ll need:

75 m/80 yards of Drops Paris Cotton or Lion Brand Kitchen Cotton – alternatively use any worsted weight cotton;

Crochet hook 4 mm;

Yarn needle.

Special Stitches

Cable stitch – Skip the next st. Dc in the next 3 st’s. Working in front of the 3 dc’s, yarn over and insert your hook into the skipped stitch. Pull up a loop to the height of the dc’s. (Yarn over and pull through 2 loops) twice, completing an extended (or long) dc. 

Notes

When working cable stitch rows, the initial ch-3 will count as a stitch. When working into cable stitch rows, don’t forget to work into this ch-3 when you get to the end of the next row.

When making sc rows, the initial ch st does not count as a stitch.

Instructions

Row 1: Ch 35. Sc in the second chain from the hook and each of the remaining 33 ch’s and turn.

Stitch Count: 34 sc’s

Row 2: If you are going to use the same colour, ch 3 (this counts as your first dc) or start with a chainless double crochet.

If you are going to use a different colour, start with a standing double crochet in the last sc of the previous round.

(Make a cable stitch over the next 4 st’s) 8 times. Dc in the last st and turn.

Stitch Count: 2 dc’s and 8 cable stitches

Rows 3 – 13: Repeat Row 2, remembering that the beginning ch-3 of each row counts as a stitch.

The 4 st’s that form each cable stitch should fall on top of the 4 st’s from the previous cable stitch. If your cables don’t line up, you have either started in the same stitch as the ch-3, not skipped a stitch when you should have, or skipped too many stitches.

Stitch Count: 2 dc’s and 8 cable stitches

Row 14: Ch 1 and sc in the same stitch. Sc in the remaining 33 st’s across and turn. Stitch Count: 34 sc’s

Row 15: Ch 1 and sc in the same stitch. Sc in the remaining 33 st’s across. Bind off and work away your tails of yarn.

Stitch Count: 34 sc’s
