Ah, ha.  I didn't understand it was a cable sampler either.  That sounds like fun.

After we learn that if a few people are interested in trying out the sock loom together, I can offer my conference call line for folks to call in and chat together as we work through the learning of the socks on the sock loom.

Just contact me off list if this is of interest to you and we will come up with a plan.

Merry Christmas!

And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. 
 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. 
 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. 
 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. 
 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. 
 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. 
 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,  Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

And, that is what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown!

Hi Terry,

I am sorry if I was not clear on my email. The classes I will be teaching
are only to learn the stitches on the loom. we will make a "cable sampler"
which is basically a swatch where we will learn all the stitches and be able
to see how they look when made. This way everyone will have the option to
make their own items and incorporate the cabling techniques learned in the
class. I am considering having a class in March to teach a hat with cables,
but this class will follow my learning cable classes part one and two in
January and February. 

Two people have already   contacted me about making socks with cables on
sock looms and though I have never done this before I could probably find a
pattern and help them to make the socks, but this is something on the side
and probably will not be a class I will offer since I have never made
anything but the large gauge socks. Probably a very similar pattern however.

Perhaps Tanya is around and has made socks with a small gauge loom and may
offer to teach this class?

Cathy
