[NFB-Krafters-Korner] upcoming class,

[Tracy Carcione]

My cable needle is shaped like a little candy cane.  I can almost taste the peppermint.  I'm not sure which of the ones Annette describes is mine, though.  I didn't know there were other kinds.

I have seen 2 other shaped cable needles, which are not my preferred ones to use.  One style is a straight needle with a bend in the needle that is rounded like a half circle.  The other is again straight with ridges in the middle and made of wood.  These both have points at either end to allow the stitches to be slipped on to the needle, and worked off of the other end.  The "V" or "j" shaped needles are my favorite.

HTH,
Annette

Hi Cathie,
, a cable needle is shaped like a print j, with one side being longer than the other. You slip stitiches on the short side, and knit off the other side after knitting one or more stitches off of the main needle. You hold the cable in front or back of your work to make the cable slant to the left or right. I'm sure whomever is teaching the class will give a description and how it works into the piece. To me a stitch holder looks like a giant safety pin. You put stitches on one while you do work on another part of your project. 

Bernice and the adorable LoLo.
