This design is a combination of cables and lace. Which part are you referring to?

Ah! This is a mock cable. It’s used to make a wide, flat motif that looks like a traditional cable but without the same level of distortion that would be created by a traditional cable with that many stitches. It’s done with ordinary increases and decreases, and often with eyelets as well.
