Cables
I recently decided to tackle cabled knitting and I'm so glad I did! Not too hard at all. Looks complicated for sure, but so far so good! I'm working on the Heather Hoodie, from Knitscene fall 2009. I am using single ply Berkshire Bulky by Valley Yarns in Wine. I like this yarn fine, but probably would pick something other than single ply next time, or something less fluffy cause I really want the cabling to stand out and already the sweater is getting fuzzy. Still the color is awesome and I'm excited to hopefully wear this from the end of winter into early spring. If I can avoid the frogging like I had to do last night! 10 rows worth ugh!

Thanks! The cables are not hard at all you can totally do it even if you are a beginner knitter. I wish I had tried earlier on. Basically you are just putting one two stiches on a needle and letting them hang there while you work one or two more stiches, then you bring your held stiches up off the extra needle and work those, which is what makes the twist for the cables. It only looks complicated!! I am 60% done the sweater! YAY! Just in time for summer! HA HA.. I will def post pictures when I am done!
Thanks for the comment!
