I am pondering a scarf of cables


I feel ready for cables. My interest in cables have been spurred by the book Cables Untangled: an Exploration of Cable knitting c.2006 by Melissa Leapman.
This book has beautiful cable patterns! Some sweaters that are just too cable busy for my taste. The afghan, blankets, and other projects are beautiful! Pages of photos of fantastic cable pattern samples that a imagination could think up.

I will start one of the scarfs from this book. Maybe tonight. I have been advised to enlarge the pattern, reading the chart being a little different than the normal written instructions.
The scarf I have been knitting out of Lion Brand Mystery, is just not feeling right. I will finish it tonight and set it aside. Maybe, when I look at it again I will find it OK.
