Cables
I'm thinking about designing a rectangular shawl with cables. I read somewhere that cables are ribbing--is that true? If it is, do I need any kind of a border to prevent curling like stockinette does? I may do a border for decorative purposes or I may not; it would be nice to know I have a choice if the border isn't a complete necessity.
