[Nfb-krafters-korner] loom gauges and knitting needle equivalents

[Powers, Terry (NIH/NCI) [E]]

Thanks Cathy!
Finished my first cable hat with the wrong patern, this weekend!
I have one loose thread, one the inside.  I think it is from my first cable stitch, left cable.
Guess I will donate it!

Terry
