Not really I have done cables before, it's just the layout I think. I see stuff like this and automatically say I can't do it. I am happy I did t turn away from this! I am overjoyed with the outcome

As I'm practicing the many different stitch patterns I see so many different types of cables. I must say they are really intimidating to me right now.

I keep pushing it farther and farther down my list.

SN: It's coming along beautifully Gaye. I'm loving the red. Errrr, or is it maroon. Or burgundy. Lol.

New Stitch a Day has occasional free classes and they teach both crochet and knitting. The last free one was on "brioche" knitting (no idea what that is).

I love the look of brioche. I will find a pic for you and post?

Word of the day is: yarn cones.

Gotta get me some. I keep running out of normal sized skeins (less than 500 yds).

Well, I'm waiting on my cable needles to be delivered (in store at Joann's was to expensive, Wal-Mart didn't have any and Michael's was way to far a hike), in the mean time I figured I could try it using dpn's to hold the cable stitches.

SN: Ooooh, I love salmon. The deeper the color, the more I like it.
