In the Breezy Batwing Tee crochet pattern, you will be working with the Cable Stitch. This stitch is fairly simple. 

  • When worked flat, you begin a row of cbl with 1 dc (as pictured in Figure 1).
  • Next, you will skip 1 stitch. Then dc in the next 3 sts (see Figure 2).  
  • Then crossing over the 3 dc you just made, you will dc in the 1st skipped stitch. This dc does not go behind or in front of the previous 3. It should be wrapped around them. You will need to make this dc a bit longer than a regular dc to accommodate the 3 sts (see Figure 3).

That’s it! The most complicated part of this stitch is keeping even tension while making the crossing dc long enough. If your stitch is looking wonky, pull it out and try again. Once you have done a few, your row should look something like Figure 4.
