I Love Cables

Posted on | September 13, 2006 | 12 Comments

I have a new found love for cables.

They are just so pretty and so interesting to knit. This is a swatch for one of my upcoming secret deals, so I can’t say too much, but it’s going to be a fun knit for sure!

I’m thinking about going to the Knit Out in Washington Square Park Union Square Park on Sunday. Any other NYC knitters going?

    I live near the NYC area so might be able to make it. What’s a knit out? Sounds like fun. I love Washington Square Park and the whole village area. It would be fun to meet you in person :)

    The cables are very pretty. I can’t wait to see what you’re going to do with them.

    I’m planning to go to the KInit Out, though probably not until mid-afternoon; I’ll be driving up from Philly that morning.

    The swatch looks amazing. You’re such a tease! I don’t think I’ll be making it to the knit out (since I’m a fake knitter and all), but I’m pretty sure that it’s at Union Square, not Washington Square Park. Showing up at the wrong park would be a bummer… Have a great time!

    Cables are great aren’t they?

    While I would love to think that I would go to the knit out, the realistic me realizes that I have a long weekend of partying ahead of me, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be much company (or much able to move) come Sunday. Have fun though, hope the weather gets better for it.

    Congratulations on the Black Pearl Yarns gig. Love the cables. I guess as long as we get to see the secret stuff eventually:)
