Knitting abbreviations are often used for brevity in describing knitting patterns.

Knitting abbreviations can be grouped by what they describe:


 * cable instructions
 * LT and RT signify "left twist" and "right twist", respectively. FC and LC indicate "front cross" or "left cross" (the same thing), whereas BC and RC indicate "back cross" or "right cross" (again the same thing).


 * color changes
 * MC means "main color"; CC means "contrasting color".


 * positional abbreviations
 * rem means "remaining". foll means "following".  beg means "beginning".  cont means "continue".  incl means "including".
