2. Establish the Ribbing:
   • Row 1 (Right Side): *K2, P2; repeat from * to end of the row.
   • Row 2 (Wrong Side): *P2, K2; repeat from * to end of the row.

   Repeat Rows 1 and 2 for a total of 4 more rows (you should have 6 rows of ribbing in total).

3. Begin the Cable Pattern:

4. Repeat the Pattern: Continue repeating Rows 1-8 until your piece measures 20 inches or your desired length.
5. Bind Off: Once you reach the desired length, bind off all stitches loosely to ensure the edge remains stretchy.
6. Finishing Touch: Using a tapestry needle, sew the cast-on edge to the bind-off edge to create a seamless join. Make sure to weave in any loose ends for a clean finish.
