This uses Stem Stitch and Outline Stitch alternately. The final effect is a line with a ‘bricked’ look. To make it clearer, I have drawn a stitch line with a pencil. A stitch line is through which all stitches will be running. Now, note that all the stitch points of the Cable Stitch will fall ON the stitch line. I will be working this stitch from left to right. This instruction is for right-handed learners.
