TUTORIAL: Indivisible, Clue 8 (EFA 2024 MCAL, take 2)

This tutorial works through the basics of Clue 8 of the Indivisible pattern for the 2024 MCAL from Expression Fiber Arts.

All of the parts of the pattern are worked. However, the main focus is on how to work the various stitches to create the cable panel in the center of the square, so to save time, each side of my swatch only has 5 stitches (instead of the 16 stitches on each side as written).

The cable panel’s repeated rows (Rows 4-7) are worked through the first time with in-depth explanations and descriptions. I use close-ups and stitch markers to help you see exactly where each stitch is worked and how to access it. I also work through rows 4-7 and second time with only basic instructions, for those who are more familiar with cabling and simply want to follow along. The tutorial finishes up with Row 24, the basics of Row 25, and a verbal explanation of Row 26.

Timestamps are provided to allow you to jump to part of the pattern you want to watch without having to search or watch the entire video.
