Hello! These Saffron Cables are looking beautiful! How is everone progressing? I may have discovered a discrepency in the pattern…I’m trying to figure out whether the pattern is meant to repeat 3 or 4 times. I’ve outlined it on my blog. Has anyone else ran into this question yet?

I’m also working on the “saffron cables” in Blue Ming. I then have plans of knitting up two throw pillows with the cable pattern in Gold. When I get some more time I’ll snoop around. Thanks for the invite!
