You are getting ahead of everything.  The cable will be taught not on  
socks.  So watch for the announcement.

Can we  learn the cable on something easier like a hat.  We need to learn 
the  stitch, first.

Hi All,



Yes it is possible. I have  been learning a number of cabling techniques 
which I will be sharing with you  during the classes I will teach in January 
and February. It is not  particularly difficult to make all sorts of cables 
on the loom and once you  know how, you can make more decorative hats, 
scarves, shawls and the like. I  am currently working on a hat with cabled ear 
flaps that is looking quite nice  so far. 

I am not certain this particular project will be good for a  class because 
it is rather complex what with the cabling techniques, the need  to learn 
how to increase and decrease, plus the need to sew the front, back,  and two 
sides together. but if anyone is up for this sort of challenge, we can  talk 
about it for a March class and it would likely take four classes.  



So hope to see you in one or more of these classes next year.  you will 
just love the cables!





The more I learn, the  more I want to  learn!



Cathy
