Lattice Cable Stitch Knitting Pattern

The Lattice Cable stitch knitting pattern is a beautiful woven design popular for a variety of projects. This design quickly reveals a diagonal interlocked design.

Knit Stitch Characteristics

Since this pattern easily lays flat, it’s a great knit stitch pattern to knit up a pillowblankethat, or scarf. It’s a fun project for experienced knitters, as well as great practice for those new to knitting cable textures with a simple 8-Row Repeat stitch pattern.

This woven, braided pattern is similar to the Diagonal Basket Weave cable knit stitch. However, this cable stitch has a more open look and does not knit up as tightly, giving it a medium stretch that would be perfect for impressive blankets and scarves.

This is not a reversible pattern, because both sides of your work, the right and wrong sides, are not identical.

RIGHT SIDE: The right side of our work is a beautiful interwoven diagonal lattice cable pattern.

WRONG SIDE: The wrong side of our work looks great, too, showing off a pretty vertical wiggle pattern.
