Hello! Today I have another new tutorial to add to my Tunisian Crochet Cable Series! The Tunisian Crochet Woven Cable creates a gorgeous texture that can be used for hats, cowls, blankets and more! Scroll down for the video tutorial and the written instructions.
The Tunisian Crochet Woven Cable creates a thick and dense fabric but the thickness can be altered by changing the yarn weight and or the hook size too.
YARN USED
I decided to use Deluxe Bulky Superwash for this tutorial because I wanted to use a bulky weight yarn to highlight the woven cables. I love the color of this yarn and the stitch definition it created with this cable pattern.

Notes and Other Tutorials
- This pattern can be worked with a regular hook that has no handle.
- Do not turn your work at the beginning of each row. This pattern is worked from right to left (forward pass) and then left to right (return pass).
- The first loop on the hook counts as a tunisian knit stitch throughout this pattern.
- The cable stitch holder can be replaced by another crochet hook. Use one that is either the same size as the main hook or a size as close as possible.
- Other weight yarns can be used for this pattern but it will vary in size.
- Use this pattern to add extra detail on headbands, beanies, cowls, scarves and more.
To create different looks with this pattern:
- Change the yarn weight and use a suitable size hook.
- Change the number of the beginning chain by using a multiple of 4+2.
THE PATTERN
R1: Forward Pass: ch 18, starting in the 2nd ch from the hook and working into the back humps of each ch, pick up a loop in each ch across. =18 loops
Return Pass: yo and pull through 1 loop, *yo and pull through 2 loops. Repeat from the * across until 1 loop remains on the hook.
R2: Forward Pass: tks (loop on the hook), *2/2 LC. Repeat from the * across until 1 st remains, tks into the last st. =18 loops
Return Pass: yo and pull through 1 loop, *yo and pull through 2 loops. Repeat from the * across until 1 loop remains on the hook.
R3: Forward Pass: tks across. =18 loops
Return Pass: yo and pull through 1 loop, *yo and pull through 2 loops. Repeat from the * across until 1 loop remains on the hook.
