How to work a Cable 4 Back (C4B) for Beginners with a Cable Needle

Welcome to The Blue Mouse Knits! In this video, I'm going to show you how to work a Cable 4 Back (C4B) for beginners. This is an easy to work pattern using a cable needle, and it's perfect for those new to working with cables. This cable is worked over 4 total stitches, 2 held at the back while you work the next 2. Holding the cable needle (CN) in the back is slightly more challenging than in the front, but this is still very doable for beginners/newer knitters.
If you're looking for an easy to work and beginner-friendly pattern, then this is the video for you! This pattern is perfect for anyone who wants to learn how to work with cables. I will have more videos coming that show you how to work a 4 stitch cable without a cable needle for both C4B and C4F.
Thanks for watching!

Hi, I’m not familiar with those terms what do they stand for? Thanks!

[@satsumamoon]

Isnt this a c2b ? BecUse youve put 2 stitches on the cable and held them at the back?

[@TheBlueMouseKnits]

Hi, the number refers to how many stitches are involved in the cable. Since you hold 2 on a cable needle and knit 2, you’re working over 4 total stitches making it a C4B. Hope that makes sense
