OK, after many, many posts requesting a legend for this chart, I’ve finally gotten around to making one. Sorry it took so long. I hope this helps!

This chart is really cool, I was just wondering if you have a key as to which symbols correspond to which stitches? Thanks!

Joyce, This is an interesting one. I’ve never worked a pattern quite like this. I did a little searching, and the best I can figure, is that you are supposed to slip the next 6 stitches to the cable needle, wrap, then knot those 6 sts from the cable needle.

Does that make sense for your pattern?

Batya, I suspect this is too late to help you, but I think you should leave the yarn in front when you slip the stitch purlwise, then move it to the back to knit. Without seeing the rest of the pattern, it is difficult to tell.

I love your argyles! I’ve sworn myself to knit a pair one day or rather one long winter so I can’t help but admire your skills here. Superb!

I also want to thank you for posting cable abbreviations to your web. They’re a huge help!

Bless your heart and your knitting skills,
Caryll
