Описание: In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the process of fixing miscrossed cable knitting, ensuring your project turns out perfect. Specifically aimed at right-handed knitters, you'll learn how to fix a cable mistake like a missed or miscrossed cable stitch without ripping out your work or frogging. Whether you're a beginner or have some experience, this step-by-step guide will enhance your knitting skills, focusing on the common mistake of cables twisting in the wrong direction.

*Steps to Fix Cable Knitting Mistakes:*

1. **Identify the Mistake**: Carefully examine your kitting to locate the misaligned cable. In this example, you notice that the cable is leaning the wrong way.
2. **Drop Down to the Cable**: Knit up to the point of the cable column and then proceed to drop down the stitches (also called laddering down).
3. **Transfer Stitches**: Move the four stitches from the cable column onto a spare needle to isolate them.
4. **Unravel and Untwist**: Release these stitches from the cable needle and continue to unravel each row until reaching the cable row. Watch as the stitches untwist and align properly.
5. **Re-twist the Cable Correctly**: Place two stitches on each needle, bringing the first two stitches to the front to correct the twist.
6. **Now knit**: Choose the lowest yarn from the unraveled floats, and knit the four stitches. Adjust the tension to prevent any sloppiness.
7. **Ladder Up**: Work each row by knitting all stitches, evening out tension as needed.
8. **Transfer Back**: Move the corrected stitches back onto the holding needle and proceed with knitting as normal.

It's always fun to practice new techniques!
