C2B could mean "slip the next two stitches onto a cable needle and hold at the back, knit the next two stitches on the left hand needle and then knit the two stitches on the cable needle."

Or it could mean "slip the next stitch onto a cable needle and hold at the back, knit the next stitch on the left hand needle and then knit the stitch on the cable needle." Your best bet is to check the pattern to find the definition used by the designer. Please note: The general accepted abbreviation C2B (Cross 2 Back) and C2F (Cross 2 Front) are generally formed using method 2 above (i.e., "slip the next two stitches onto a cable needle and hold at the back, knit the next stitch on the left hand needle and then knit the two stitches on the cable needle.").

Adjust the number of yarn overs and K2tog as desired for the size of the knots and the openness of the fabric.
How can I incorporate thermal stitch knitting into my next project for added warmth and texture?

What is seed stitch in knitting?

What stitch makes knitting elastic?
Knitting can be made more elastic by using stretchy stitches such as ribbing. Ribbing is typically 1x1 or 2x2, but many other types of ribbing are possible, and many non-ribbing stitches are also stretchy. 1x1 ribbing is formed by knitting one stitch and purling the next. Repeat these two stitches to the end of the row. On following rows, "knit the knits and purl the purls." This simply means you should look at the stitch you are about to work and determine whether it looks like a knit or like a purl. Remember that a purl is simply the back side of a knit stitch. Knit stitches look like the letter "V," while purl stitches look like dashes ("-"). 2x2 ribbing is very similar to 1x1 ribbing except that you knit two stitches and purl the next two stitches. Again repeat to the end of the row, and again "knit the knits and purl the purls."
