Cables in Deep Indigo
Aileen came by the stand to get two more skeins of indigo for her mom to finish this lovely scarf. Cable patterns take more yarn; perhaps someone can tell us how much additional yarn would be required by a cabled pattern compared to a stockinette pattern. Half again as much, or more, or less?
I hope she wears it by when finished. Spring is almost here, yet we still need wool to keep warm. This winter has been colder than any I can remember, not by its extremes but by its constancy: the unrelenting sub-freezing temperatures with nary a warm spell have been unusual.
