Chunky Beaded Cable

Chart worked in 12 ply yarn with pony beads

I originally designed this cable for use with a 12 ply yarn and pebble beads, but it would look great with any yarn as long as you choose a suitable weight bead to match.

Please note: The beads will be sideways compared to those shown in the photo as the sample was knit on a knitting machine.
