Honeycomb Cables Without a Cable Needle
Simple 1/1 cables become even faster and easier when they are worked without a cable needle.
We will begin by learning the basic Honeycomb Cable pattern.
Stitches:
1/1 LC: Sl 1 st to cable needle and hold to front, k1, k1 from cable needle.
1/1 RC: Sl 1 st to cable needle and hold to back, k1, k1 from cable needle.

Simple and easy, right? Even easier (and faster!) to work when you make the cables without a cable needle. Below are videos with me demonstrating how to work the cables without a cable needle.
These concepts can be applied to 2/2 cables (with both knit and purl stitches) as well, but seemingly become too finicky when working 3/3 or larger cables.
