I really like these! Thank you for sharing.
May I ask you a question, if you don't mind. As a new knitter when you were learning to knit, how long did it take to get a good rythm and efficiency?
Just wondering. I'm a new knitter, but have been discouraged lately to pick up the needles, because I'm just finding it more difficult than crochet.

Stumbled upon your site and this pattern intrigued me. I had never tried cables and this was a good and quick project (I did it for my granddaughter) and the cabling was easy. Thanks!
Glad it was easy for you. Good way to practice cables witout much commitment.
I made a wider one and use it to hold my hair back while I wash my face.
