Knitting: Homes of Donegal Cable

Homes of Donegal Cable

This file was downloaded from http://www.knitting-and.com/knitting/patterns/stitches/donegal.htm

This is a pretty cable with four embossed homes within a large diamond.
A stunning variation would be to put 9 or 16 homes within the main cable diamond, especially if you use it on an afghan or a spacious winter coat.
