Fear of making mistakes can hold you back from trying cabled projects.
Don’t let cabling scare you!

Lacking the Confidence to Attempt Cabled Projects?

Fear of making mistakes can be enough to stop you from attempting complex cable patterns on your own.

I Had a Hard Time Remembering How to Do Cables

Liat Original Old Happy Smiling Headshot Christmas
Cabled Legwamers White with Buttons sm 81922

When I first attempted a cable pattern, I had to follow the directions very painstakingly as I could not remember which stitches went which way for each type of cable.

I’m Liat Gat, founder and video instructor at KnitFreedom. Once I taught myself how to do cables without a cable needle, I figured out the secret to remembering what goes where.

I created a super-popular bulky cabled legwarmers pattern and this 23-video tutorial series to help bring this technique within the reach of more knitters everywhere.

Now I’ve updated the course with even more high-quality bonus content so you can work reversible cables like a pro, as well.

When You Watch Videos Designed for Your Success, Learning is Inevitable and Fun

Many knitting videos, even professional ones, are long, rambly, and take forever to get to the point.

KnitFreedom videos start you off learning straight away and fill in the extra details as you go.
Other videos are shown far away, with distracting details, or simply don’t show you close-up what you need to see.

KnitFreedom videos are so close-up and in-focus that you can see each stitch and are left with no doubt as to what you need to do.
Teachers’ voices can be irritating and distracting, which is frustrating if you need to watch videos many times to remind yourself of a technique.

Liat’s voice is calm and encouraging, with simple instructions, a fun approach to making and fixing mistakes, and no extra chit-chat.

–Clear, concise explanations
–Exquisite close-up photography
–Bite-sized sequences that optimize learning . . .
all provided in an easy, encouraging style.

Way to go!
