I was wondering if we could put our heads together and figure the rest out? I think I am going to start it in cream colored Alfa (if I make it in bulky wt.) or Lamb's Pride. Please let me know what you think, I would love to hear more about what you have done w/ the pattern. Thank you.

I would guess that it would curl if there wasn't some sort of snap closure along the outside edge of the cable. It seems to have 5 buttons on the inside edge of the cables.

It's taken me a while to get back and comment ... one of the downsides of Bloglines, I suppose.

I see knit items in just about everything I watch now. It's like after the military I became super scrutinous about the appearance of Air Force uniforms on tv or television. Now, knit items just jump out at me! I'm curious to see where the cabled sweater leads you... I just watched that movie last week myself. I see knit items in just about everything I watch now.

My daughter remarked that she would love something like that, so I have been watching for patterns for EASY lace cardigans.

Your mom may think she knows how to spoil a dog, but she's a rank amateur compared to us. My Andy has breakfast every morning (3 strips of chicken jerky and a lamb dog biscuit) on my lap, cries until Tool Man gets out of the recliner, and has his own pillow (in the middle) of our Californina King bed. Two things I know how to do very well: knit, and spoil a dog! So you think Izzy is spoiled by having oatmeal every morning?
