Crossed Arrow Cable Stitch Pattern

CROSSED ARROW CABLE KNIT PATTERN

It looks difficult but it's actually an easy cable pattern. It's the crossed arrow cable stitch pattern. CO 28 stitches for a 6 inch width. For a 9 inch height I repeated rows 1-16, 2 times total, then did rows 1-12. I used a 10.5 needle.
