Colorful Crochet Cables

How to Crochet Celtic Cabled Designs in Vibrant Multicolored Hues

Don't be afraid to mix colours and cables!

The often-repeated advice that it is best to choose solid-colour yarns when you crochet cables is not always true. With a little bit of knowledge and planning, you can crochet beautiful Celtic cables and enhance the design with your choice of a multi-coloured yarn.

Author Noelle R. B. Stiles is a vision scientist at the University of Southern California and has done extensive research into the art and science of colour play (so that you don't have to!). What she brings to this book is the practical side of colour usage. She gives you a broad look at how colours and designs work together and illustrates how colour choices affect the final outcome of your crochet pieces. She specifically sets out to prove that multi-coloured yarns should not be side-lined in your textured crochet pieces and can be used to great advantage.

With practical examples and 20 patterns, she shows how crochet designs can feature both a multi-coloured yarn and an intricate cable to gorgeous effect. Patterns include eye-catching scarves, hats, mitts, blanket, cardigan, and more. If you are new to cabling, there are step-by-step instructions and several beginner patterns. Pull out your favourite hand-painted or variegated yarn and give it a try!
