Step 1. First you will apply gel polish base, and keep it under the UV light for 30 seconds.
Step 2. After you chose your nail color, apply it and keep it under the UV lamp for one minute. You can color every nail differently, or you can color just one in different color or simply color all of your nails in same color.
Step 3. Repeat step two. It looks much more appealing if your nail color is intense, this is why you need one more layer of nail polish.
Step 4. Use peace of paper to mix amount of polish that you will use to create cable knit sweater nail art. Take the same amount of 3D gel and gel polish you used to color your nails and mix them together. If you used multiple colors for your nails, than make multiple mixtures.
Step 5. Draw cable knit pattern with brush. Dip your brush in the mixture, be careful to pick small amount of color and than carefully draw some of the designs you can see in pictures. Go over your nails easily with the brush, barely touching them. Lighter you touch them, thinner your pattern will be. After you finish with drawing your preferred pattern, put your nails in 3D lamp for another minute or two and you’re done! Afterwards you can apply layer of protective gel and dry them under 3D light for another minute if you want, this is optional.
