ReplyDeleteThis pattern is cool! As are ALL your patterns. YOu are a very talented woman!
ReplyDeleteI really like these! Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteMay 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!
ReplyDeleteGlad it was easy for you. Good way to practice cables witout much commitment.
ReplyDeleteI made a wider one and use it to hold my hair back while I wash my face.
