It finally came

I have yarn for Cable-Eight! Yay!

It is a lovely coral color, and it’s called Terracotta Canyon. Kat Coyle used it in her Wave Skirt, which is in the current IK. I’ll have swatches for you tomorrow.

I’m an inch or less away from completing the back to Vogue Cable Cardi. Then, as much as I’d like to start on the cables, I think I’ll do the sleeves. I’m going to try to do them both at the same time, the thought being they’ll match that way, and I won’t have to worry about decreases lining up and gauge.

That’s all for me today. I feel like crap. Whatever is going around has settled in my blood, and I’m sick. It looks like Liv is getting hit hard, and Veronica is showing signs of recovery. I hope this is a quick one.

UPDATE- There’s an errata posted for Cable-Eight. Thanks to Stella and Diana for the link!

    This Cable 8 will be SO quick. If you have a long circular you could even do 2 pieces at once. THat might be torture though.
