This pattern is suitable for beginners and cable-beginners! You should be familiar with stockinette stitch! This pattern uses the following techniques: picking up stitches, reading charts, cabling, decreases, three needle bind off, and knitting in the round. I’ll be posting tutorials on my instagram!
