One Skein Along.

One thing I love about knitting is that if you don’t like what you’ve done so far, you rip it out and start over.

I’m super, head-over heels in love with this hoodie...and when I noticed that the cables where coming out very elongated. I decided to eliminate 2 rows from the pattern repeat. My gauge swatch was extended by two rows and I believe that this actually works out for a more tight looking cable. What do you think?



Yarn: Berroco Ultra Alpaca
Needles: size 7 and 9 US

It is looking good. Your cables look like mine and I'm following the pattern as written.

Maybe it is the alpaca that made the original cables look elongated.
